Ricky Ponting, the Australian captain, picked up the Golden Bat and the Man of the Tournament Award for the most number of runs while South Africa's Wayne Parnell was awarded the Golden Ball for the most number of wickets, eleven, in the tournament.

Shane Watson has, of course, been the star for Australia making centuries in the ICC Champions Trophy semi final against England as well as in the ICC Champions Trophy final.

The jackets worn by the Australian team were specially designed for the tournament winners and handed over to the Australian cricketers by the ICC President, David Morgan, and ICC Chief Executive, Haroon Lorgat, who personally helped them put on the coats.
