Top 5 performers from Sri Lanka vs Australia ODI series

Mitchell Starc

After becoming the fastest bowler in the history of cricket to take 100 ODI wickets in the first ODI against Sri Lanka, Mitchell Starc was always going to have a tough time keeping the standards so high and so it proved to be.

But that doesn’t mean that he didn’t have a great series with the ball, in fact, he finished it as the leading wicket-taker with 12 wickets in five matches when only one other bowler had managed to get into double digits for the series. What was impressive about Starc’s bowling was his incredible consistency.

It is that same consistency that has helped him reach 100 ODI wickets so quickly and that was evident from the fact that he picked up at least one wicket in every match of the ODI series, which he eventually finished with an average of 18.1 and an economy rate of under 4.5.
