Australia No Longer Number One

The Australian cricket team, which was once the most feared team in recent history, the team which was the number one for the last five years has lost its dominance. The Australian cricket team was the most successful team in recent history. It has won the last three world cups consecutively; all the other major teams have tried in vain to de throne Australia. But the Australian now has lost its touch. Its decline began, as its celebrated players like Glenn McGrath, Gilchrist and Hayden retired. Now the Australian team is finding it difficult to find able replacements for their spots. Mean while there has been teams like India and South Africa have been playing their best. Both these teams have been wanting to the number one team. In the recent times Australia has been loosing some matches. This has led to Australia being knocked from the first place. South Africa has been playing really good cricket and has lived their dream of becoming the number one team. Only in the future we will know whether Australia will regain its place or will South Africa dominate in all forms of the game like Australia.
