Mitchell Starc Profile: In recent times, not many bowlers have shown a similar caliber in the gentleman’s game as that of this era’s most enthusiastic talent, Mitchell Starc. Starc has established himself as one of the best pace bowling sensations in white ball cricket but is also performing eminently well in red-ball cricket of the recent era and asserted to be highly convincing throughout all phases of his career and has been equally convincing since his return to the Australian national team in 2019 after he sustained many injuries.
Due to his bowling style, which consists of insane pace, he is one of the fastest bowlers of his generation and has sublime adaptiveness and variations to bowl at several different paces. He also specializes in bowling perfectly pitched yorkers, which are often called ‘Toe Breakers’, first developed by the legendary Brett Lee.
Starc is often referred to as one of the generational ace players. He is also known for his prolific ability to bowl in several parts of innings, especially with the new ball and the death, and is widely regarded as one of the greatest bowlers with the new ball in limited overs cricket with many variations and a lethal pace and front pitchers.
Starc holds several unique records, like being the fastest to reach the 200 wicket milestone in just 102 innings, being the 7th highest wicket-taker for Australia in international test cricket, and having bowled the fastest ball ever bowled in test cricket with a pace measured at 160.4 kmph. He is the recipient of several accolades and has also won two major ICC trophies: the ICC T20 World Cup in 2021 and the ICC Cricket World Cup in 2015, where he was the most eminent and consistent contributor and was also chosen as the man of the tournament.
