India- Mitchell Starc's rise to prominence in international cricket

A conventional left-arm seamer, Starc has been Australia's linchpin of bowling attack across all formats. He opened the bowling alongside Clint McKay in the second ODI at Visakhapatnam, but remained wicketless. However, Starc delivered the goods in the Brisbane ODI against Sri Lanka next month as he snapped up an astonishing four-wicket haul. Downslide A phase of dejection Starc had momentary stints in the national side before the World T20 in 2012 due to inconsistency. He also gave a testimony of his batting ability after scoring an unbeaten 68 against South Africa in Perth Test (2012). He reiterated that Starc needs to revoke his soft attitude against India, following the Brisbane Test. His statement came after the Indian batsmen tormented Australia's pace attack in the Test. Later that year, Starc scripted history after recording a delivery at 160.4 KPH in a Test against New Zealand. Australia missed his services in the India series last season as he was out with muscle tear. Hence, hosts Australia will be banking on their premiere fast bowler in the upcoming T20 World Cup .
