Australia’s star bowler Mitchell Starc appeared injured during the fourth Test match played in Melbourne. He noticed this problem for the first time on the third day of the match. Starc was seen holding his back during the bowling spell.
Also, he walked out of the field before the end of the day’s play. However, now Australian team head coach Andrew McDonald is hopeful that fast bowler Mitchell Starc will be available for the fifth and final Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against India in Sydney. McDonald admitted that Starc is recovering from injury and a decision on his selection in the team will be taken before the start of the Tests. The fifth Test between India and Australia is starting from 3 January. It is noteworthy that on the last day of the fourth Test, Starc bowled with full capacity despite severe pain and helped Australia save the target. McDonald said it was clear Starc was having some trouble. We are looking into this. Everything seems fine except that. However, there is still some time left for it to come out. We will see what kind of team is needed in Sydney and take a decision after looking at the pitch.
