Mitchell Starc took the cricketing world by storm when he arrived on the international scene. Starc made his debut in 2010, he had a slow start to his international career but Starc produced some serious pace as he joined the list of the best Australian fast bowlers. Injuries acted as obstacles for Starc but the left arm pacer dodged all those obstacles to be a standout performer for Australia.

In the 2015 World Cup in Australia, Starc picked up 22 wickets in 8 matches as he emerged as the leading wicket-taker of the tournament. He earned the man of the tournament award for his heroics, due to this, the Michael Clarke led side went on to lift the World Cup. Starc has picked up 141 wickets in 73 ODIs with the best figures of 6 for 28 which came against New Zealand in the previous World Cup.

Starc has played three ODIs in England in which he has picked 11 wickets. In the 2019 World Cup, the southpaw will look to improve his statistics further. A weakened Australian side would depend on the 29-year-old to produce his magic.
