"I think tonight I just went in with a really clear mindset to sort of be a little bit more proactive and a bit more trusting I suppose in my foundations and what I do really well," Maxwell said of his brief innings against Bangladesh. "I know I reverse well; I know I play spin well when I'm busy on my feet and moving forward and back and when I'm just looking at gaps in the field and adapting to what comes in front of me, I can get into my innings relatively comfortably.

"Even just thinking back, I feel like I might have even got sucked into a little bit of the pace of play during the IPL where you're sort of set up as a power-hitter. And that's [where] all your sort of focus goes towards and you're thinking more about hidden boundaries every ball instead of still playing your strengths and tonight sort of went back to I suppose what I do really well is start my innings with good cricketing shots, back my ability to manipulate fields and try and stick to that."

"It feels like every ground has its different little idiosyncrasies," Maxwell said. "This [Antigua] is a slow outfield with a howling breeze to a short boundary. Barbados can be fifty-fifty on the wicket, can be slow. As we've seen, St. Vincent is going to be spinny and might be a slightly quicker outfield. So, there's so many different changes.

"It feels like you're going to a completely different part of the world every ground that you go to, and you've got to adapt and change. I think that's just the way our team's gone. It feels like we've been the quickest ones to adapt to the conditions throughout the tournament. I'm sure that's going to probably hold true for the last few games. The team that adapts the quickest will come out victorious."

"We've kind of ticked off everything we have we could possibly do so far," Cummins succinctly put it after the Bangladesh outing, adding it felt like Warner is "always up there" in the run charts at World Cups and that Starc, who is now the leading wicket-taker across both the 50- and 20-over events, has "stood up when we needed [him] to in big moments."

Speaking before the Bangladesh game, Ricky Ponting touched on Australia's tournament mentality. "I think other teams feel that Australia are going to lift for the bigger games, so they try harder and do things differently," he said. "I think India in the [ODI] World Cup final is a great example of that - they got away from what they'd done right the way through, tried too hard and it cost them. Australia know what they need to do - they stay in control of things and turn up ready to play every game."
