The Frank Worrell Trophy is played between Australia and the West Indies. The Trophy is named after the West Indies cricketer Frank Worrell. Sir Frank Worrell became famous in the 1950s as the first black captain of the West Indies cricket team. He was a stylish right-handed batsman and more than a useful left-arm seam bowler. His average in 51 Tests was an impressive 49.48. Along with Everton Weekes and Clyde Walcott, he formed what was known as "The Three Ws" of the West Indian cricket.
Since the 1960-61 series, the Frank Worrell Trophy is awarded to the winner of the Test series between Australia and West Indies. The current holders of the Trophy are Australia who have 14 wins around their belt. The highest run scorer in this trophy is Brian Lara with 2815 runs and Courtney Walsh having the highest number of wickets with 135.

A former Tata Consultancy Services employee, Aayushman has been supporting the Australian men's national team after being impressed with their aggressive and never-say-die attitude in the 2003 ICC World Cup. His favorite cricketer is Steve Smith, whose tremendous self-belief in his methods, despite them being unorthodox, inspire him a lot. Smith’s performances from 2019 Ashes Series only fueled this inspiration further. He would like to revisit the 2015 ICC World Cup semi-final clash between India and Australia if ever got hold of a time machine.
When not working, Aayushman loves to spend his spare time reading fiction books and watching one of his favorite television shows Grey's Anatomy.
