Tri-series: Team of the Tournament

David Warner

M: 3 | Runs: 165 | Ave: 82.50 | SR: 91.66 | 100s: 1 | 50s: 1

The left-hander's tournament was cut short by a finger injury, but he made a significant impact early in the series with two match-winning performances. His unbeaten 55 against the Windies on a tricky surface in Guyana was composed, while his 109 against the Proteas in St Kitts set up Australia's tense victory.

Hashim Amla

M: 6 | Runs: 241 | Ave: 48.20 | SR: 88.60 | 100s: 1 | 50s: 1

One of the most prolific run-scorers in world cricket continued to build an extraordinary ODI record during this series. The elegant right-hander posted two middling scores in Guyana before knocks of 60 and 110 in St Kitts, the former an innings that appeared to put the Proteas on course for victory, the latter his 23rd century of an amazing career.

Darren Bravo

M: 6 | Runs: 216 | Ave: 36.00 | SR: 70.81 | 100s: 1 | 50s: 0

The elegant left-hander had threatened to post a big score all series and when the pressure was on his Barbados, he delivered what he labelled the best performance of his career. After cameos of 30 and 39 in victories in Guyana and St Kitts, Bravo delivered a magnificent 102 against the Proteas at Kensington Oval, digging his side out of an enormous hole and setting up a thumping victory.

Steve Smith (c)

M: 6 | Runs: 218 | Ave: 54.50 | SR: 80.44 | 100s: 0 | 50s: 3

Australia's skipper hasn't been at his dominant best during the series, but he's steadied Australia's middle order with three half-centuries from five innings. After two low scores in Guyana, the right-hander posted an unbeaten 52 and 74 in St Kitts before his composed innings of 78 led Australia's pursuit of 283 in their must-win game against the Windies in Barbados.

Marlon Samuels

M: 6 | Runs: 252 | Ave: 42.00 | SR: 93.33 | 100s: 1 | 50s: 1

One of the most unpredictable and criticised players in world cricket has had a tournament to remember and has taken a particular liking to Australia. A match-winning knock of 92 against the Aussies in St Kitts was followed by a  blazing 125 against them in Barbados that, while it didn't result in victory, was one of the highlights of the tournament.

Kieron Pollard

M: 6 | Runs: 185 | Ave: 46.25 | SR: 91.13 | 100s: 0 | 50s: 2

Wkts: 4 | Ave: 37.25 | Econ: 6.57 | BBI: 2-32

Back in ODI cricket for the first time in 18 months, Pollard has been a breath of fresh air for the Windies as they stormed into the final. A match-winning innings of 67no against South Africa in Guyana was followed by an equally important 62 against them under enormous pressure in Barbados, while his medium-pace has been particularly effective on the slow surfaces used early in the tournament.

Denesh Ramdin

M: 6 | Runs: 157 | Ave: 26.16 | SR: 75.48 | 100s: 0 | 50s: 1

With neither Australia's Matthew Wade or South Africa's Quinton de Kock producing many standout performances, Ramdin gets into the side on the back of his brilliant 91 against Australia in Barbados, despite some mixed performances with the gloves. Coming in a record partnership with Marlon Samuels, the highlight of Ramdin's innings was the consecutive sixes down the ground he scored off Mitchell Starc.

Mitchell Starc

M: 4 | Wkts: 8 | Ave: 17.37 | Econ: 4.63 | BBI: 3-43

That Australia has won all three completed matches with Starc in their side and lost two without him is surely more than a coincidence. The left-armer has unsurprisingly shown signs of rust at times in his first series in six months, but has still delivered in his role as Australia's premier strike bowler. His opening spell against the Windies in Barbados showed he was getting back to his best.

Sunil Narine

M: 6 | Wkts: 11 | Ave: 20.90 | Econ: 3.84 | BBI: 6-27

In his first series since a lengthy ban for an illegal bowling action, Narine started with a bag of six wickets against the Proteas in Guyana and has gradually grown accustomed to his new method. He's managed just five wickets in five matches since then, but his series economy rate of 3.84 underlines just how difficult he's been to get away, with opposition batsmen often preferring to be patient against his bowling and targeting other members of the Windies attack.

Josh Hazlewood

M: 6 | Wkts: 6 | Ave: 28.50 | Econ: 4.10 | BBI: 3-52

On surfaces that could not be further from those in which he normally thrives, Australia's most reliable quick has delivered again. He may not have the strike power of his opening partner Starc, but Hazlewood's relentless line and length - which has yielded six maidens and an economy rate of 4.10 - has barely wavered throughout the series. Gets the nod in our XI just ahead of the 12th man.

Imran Tahir

M: 6 | Wkts: 13 | Ave: 16.15 | Econ: 4.56 | BBI: 7-45

The prolific Tahir had a tournament to remember, even if he was unable to get a breakthrough in South Africa's loss to the Windies in Barbados. The leg-spinner delivered a tournament high of 13 wickets for the series, the highlight a South African record haul of 7-45 against the Windies in St Kitts, which helped him surpass 100 career wickets.

12th man: Kagiso Rabada

M: 6 | Wkts: 7 | Ave: 27.14 | Econ: 4.63 | BBI: 3-13

One of the most exciting young bowlers in world cricket, Rabada had a mixed tournament but bookended his campaign with two standout performances. Having helped to destroy Australia's top order with figures of 3-13 from seven overs in Guyana, he produced arguably the spell of the tournament in taking three wickets in just three overs against the Windies in Barbados. Unlucky to miss out on the final XI.
