Head and shoulders above: Why Trav is the key to Australia's T20 World Cup success

Former South Africa coach Mickey Arthur is the man West Australian cricket has been looking to in order to turn around its years of underachieving.
41-year-old Arthur replaces West Australian cricket legend Tom Moody, who sought not to renew his contract after several failed seasons as coach. Moody failed to produce any silverware in his three seasons at the helm of the Warriors.
West Australian cricket has been lacking since the retirements of Justin Langer, Damien Martyn, Ryan Campbell, Adam Gilchrist and Bradley Hogg, all in the space of a couple of years.
But with up-and-coming batsman such as Wes Robinson and Luke Ronchi taking over as prolific run-scorers, and bowlers such as Aaron Heal and Brad Knowles taking regular wickets, the future of West Australian cricket looks bright.
Arthur aims to change the fortunes of West Australian cricket during his three-year team, much like he transformed South African cricket. When Arthur took over as head coach of South Africa in 2005, the Proteas were ranked in third place in Test matches and sixth in one-day internationals.
His strict approach took South Africa to Number One in both formats in just four years.
Arthurs no-nonsense approach is exactly what Western Australian cricket needs to claim its first trophy since the domestic one-day title in 2003-04.
