Austraia/SL/Pakistan - T20s
Sadly, this may not be good prep for the WC. Of course, people might say these games should be valuable in their own right, but sadly we know that's not true. It's like Ashes practice matches against D-grade county sides.
True, there's still a year to go, but how many T20s will Oz play in that time?
There are no excuses for not winning the WC, given the enormous home-ground advantage.

Cricket Victoria restructured mental health model
https://www.theage.com.au/sport/cricket ... 536n4.html
"... performance psychologist Tony Glynn - who had been working four days a week on staff at CV - moved in July to a consultancy role with some senior and pathway players.
When Glynn - who has also worked with netball’s Melbourne Vixens and Tennis Australia - was working on staff at CV he was available for players to speak to about their issues when they wanted.
CV decided mid-year to change course. Under the new structure, players talk to CV doctor Trefor James as a first point of call when dealing with a mental health concern. Dr James then refers players as applicable to a broader network of mental health professionals, who in effect act as consultants. Glynn has continued to be involved with CV as one of these consultants.
The new structure allows players to talk with mental health professionals away from CV, keeping discussions at arm’s length from the organisation.
...
As a CA-contracted player, Maxwell has had access to Australian men's team psychologist Michael Lloyd."
