<\/p>\nZampa also noted how the Australian white ball team\u2019s games are increasingly played off-Broadway, whether home games in the Top End out of season, or away fixtures often played in the dead of night. Add the fact that Amazon Prime holds broadcast rights for World Cups until the end of the current cycle in 2027, and \u201cseeing the white ball fly\u201d is nowhere near as big a spectator deal in Australia as it used to be.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think the Australian public struggle with the fact that they don\u2019t get to see much of the white-ball cricket we play,\u201d Zampa said of formats that have been paywalled in Australia since 2018. \u201cWe play like three to six games in the summer.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe do a lot of our work away from Australian time, so they don\u2019t get to see the way that we kind of play and have prepared for these World Cups.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd we\u2019ve done some \u2013 played a lot of really good cricket up until now so it\u2019s yeah it\u2019s disappointing that it\u2019s ended like this, but I think that the work and the time is as much effort as the other formats.\u201d<\/p>\n
Among the players who struggled most for Australia were multi-format members of the team, who had recently gone through the rigours of a draining Ashes bout. England were comfortably beaten at home in the Test format, but not without some battles along the way.<\/p>\n

Neither of Cameron Green or Josh Inglis were able to get a score in any of the three games that led to elimination before the fourth, while Travis Head\u2019s 50 against Sri Lanka was not followed up by the rest of the order.<\/p>\n
