Mitchell Starc is a name that sends shivers down the spine of any batsman in the world. With his blistering pace and ability to swing the ball both ways, Starc has been a vital cog in the Australian cricket team’s wheel for many years. After missing out on the first two Tests of the series against India due to personal reasons, Starc is all set to make a comeback in the third Test match in Indore.
Starc is known for his aggressive style of bowling, and his ability to generate reverse swing with the old ball is what makes him a lethal weapon in the bowling attack. His partnership with Pat Cummins, Josh Hazlewood, and Nathan Lyon has been a major reason for Australia’s success in Test cricket over the years.
Starc has an excellent record against India, having taken 27 wickets in just five Tests at an average of 28.59. His best figures against India came in Pune, where he took 6 for 50 in the second innings to help Australia to a memorable win. His pace and swing were too much for the Indian batsmen to handle, and he will be hoping to replicate that performance in the upcoming Test in Indore. He could replace Matthew Kuhnemann in the starting XI of Australia in the third Test match. Replacing Matthew Kuhnemann, Starc will add a lot of firepower to the Australian bowling attack.
