It's a coveted set collected across eight years and three continents, albeit during a phase which even the most ardent of Aussie cricket fans would hesitate to call glorious.
It's anyway not easy to do an encore of what Steve Waugh and Ricky Ponting's Australia had achieved for nearly two decades reaching every known frontier and making a habit of winning ICC events.

Add to this the drawn Test series in Sri Lanka and the 1-0 win in Pakistan in 2022 and this generation is nearly golden.
Not comprehensively though, because this Australia team has fallen short on two counts-winning a Test series in India and the Ashes in England.
