Australian bowlers are considered very famous all over the world. In such a situation, in the third (SL vs AUS T20) T20 match against Sri Lanka, his splendid feat was also seen. In the match played in Canberra, Australia stopped Sri Lanka (Australia vs Sri Lanka) for just 121 runs in 20 overs. But there was something to be seen in this match, which hardly anyone would have seen. Australia’s fast bowler Mitchell Starc bowled a ball that went viral on social media.
Mitchell Starc is known for his excellent yorker. But on Tuesday, the left-arm bowler threw such a ball, there was no answer to it. The wicketkeeper also failed to stop this ball of Mitchell Starc, as well as narrowly avoided that ball. In fact, in the match played in Canberra, when Mitchell Starc was bowling in the death over, he threw a beamer to the batsman. But this beamer was far from the batsman. Wicketkeeper Matthew Wade also narrowly escaped trying to catch this ball.
