#4 Starc shows all-round skills

Mitchell Starc
Unfortunately, Starc ran out of partners and remained stranded on 29

Australia are never short of all-rounders and Mitchell Starc chose the right time to put up his hand with some all-round skills. Starc is known for his big hitting abilities and has even scored a 99 in a Test in India.

Starc started out brilliantly with the ball, dismissing Tom Latham with a fullish delivery. He returned to pick out two more in the final over of the game to close off the Kiwis innings.

He then put on a display with the willow in hand, walking in with Australia needing 84 to win. Cummins was playing a cameo himself and Starc took cue from him to hit some lusty blows off Santner. Unfortunately, he ran out of partners and remained stranded on 29.
