'I don't know what he's technically done, but it doesn't look the greatest'. 😬 Australia is sweating on the results of scans on Mitchell Starc's injured finger. 9WWOS AUSvSA
"I don't know what he's technically done, but it doesn't look the greatest," he told cricket.com.au."He went out the back and tried to bowl, but I think it a bit different to be honest.
"Unfortunately, injuries are part of the game … all we can hope for is he gets the best possible result with the scan – he's there as we speak."After a tough year in 2021, Starc has regained some of his best form in Test cricket this year, picking up 34 wickets in 11 Tests at an average of 27.11. The 32-year-old picked up seven wickets in the first Test win over South Africa last week in Brisbane, and has taken multiple wickets in five of his last six Test innings.
Starc picked up the wickets of Temba Bavuma and Khaya Zondo early on day one, finishing with figures of 2-39 off 13 overs. For a daily dose of the best of the breaking news and exclusive content from Wide World of Sports, subscribe to our newsletter by
