Unfortunately, he missed the entire season due to a fracture in his right tibial bone.Starc will now be participating in the IPL 2024 mini-auction with a base price of Rs 2 crore, although he is sure to attract a much higher bid.

In the first semi-final, hosts India will be taking on New Zealand on Wednesday while South Africa will be squaring off against Australia in the second second semi-final match on Thursday.

India vs Australia – Steve Smith’s Form Not A Concern But Australia Must Adapt Well: Mitchell Starc | Cricket News

[ad_1] Steve Smith might be taking a wee bit more time to adjust to sub-continental tracks but his poor returns in the first two ODIs against India is least of concern for the Australian team management, senior speedster Mitchell Starc said on Tuesday. Usually a prolific scorer against India, Smith has scores of 0 and 41 in the first two ODIs on batting-friendly tracks, having flopped earlier in the Test series in February-March when he could only manage 145 runs across four Tests. Starc, who himself is coming back from groin niggle, was speaking ahead of the third and final ODI scheduled on Wednesday. "No. His (Smith) numbers speak for himself," Starc replied to a query on Smith's current form."He (Smith) has been a high class player and has been a massive part of all formats for Austra...

“He Wasn’t Able To…”: India Legend Dissects Virat Kohli’s Dismissal By Mitchell Starc | Cricket News

[ad_1] Virat Kohli walks back to the pavilion after losing his wicket during day 2 of WTC Final on June 8.© AFPFormer India cricketer Sunil Gavaskar pointed out what went wrong with Virat Kohli during his dismissal in the ongoing World Test Championship final on Thursday. A bouncing short ball from Mitchell Starc hit the shoulder of Kohli's bat and went into the hands of Steve Smith at second slip during India's first innings against Australia in the summit clash. Gavaskar opined that batting on the backfoot would have helped Kohli in playing such a delivery as it would have given him time to decide whether to leave the ball or play it."Because of the fact that there are only two bouncers allowed per over nowadays, most of the batters are on to the front foot which means that they are no...
