Since that time, they have played three first round group games in St Kitts and three Super Eights matches in Antigua. But it's the huge gaps in between which irk many players.

Australia's seven-wicket win over England on Sunday was their first match in eight days; they won't play again until Friday this week when they clash with debutants Ireland here.
