History of Australian cricket from 2000–01

This article describes the history of Australian cricket from the 2000–01 season.

Despite temporarily losing The Ashes in 2005, Australia has continued to dominate world cricket in the first decade of the 21st century. Great players during this period have been Shane Warne, Glenn McGrath and Adam Gilchrist.

## Domestic cricket

[edit]

Queensland has been the strongest team during this period but there was a pleasant surprise for the cricket world when Tasmania, which staged the inaugural first-class Australian match in 1851, finally won the domestic championship for the first time in 2007.
