#5 Mitchell Starc (Australia) – 53 and 6 wickets against South Africa

Starc produced with both bat and ball in the final Test

In an excellent week for all-rounders, Starc showed his batting talent, by scoring 53 at No.8 adding a valuable 44 with Khawaja and then another 30 with No.9 Josh Hazlewood, to push Australia’s score to 383, ensuring a lead of 124 runs.

Starc then came strongly with the ball in South Africa’s second innings, picking the top order wickets of Faf du Plessis, Dean Elgar and Stephen Cook for figures of 4/80. 6 wickets in the match and a gritty half century to contribute to an excellent win for the hosts, puts him on this list without a doubt.
