Marnus Labuschagne has finally earned his spot in the World Cup squad but a lack of quality spinner would still hurt the men from Down Under. Australia are five-time World Cup champions (1987, 1999, 2003, 2007 and 2015), the most by any country. But with other teams in prime form, Aussies would want to bring their A-game to the fore if they want to make it six World Cup titles.
