Matthew Wade Reveals His Experience Against Fresh Mitchell Starc In The Nets Before Limited-Overs Series

Australian left-arm fast bowler Mitchell Starc is getting ready for the complete home international series against India. Before the beginning of this series, the Aussie wicket-keeper Matthew Wade revealed how fresh Starc is in a dangerous mood with the ball in hand.

India are touring Australia for the three-match ODI series, three-match T20I series and four-match Test series. They will start the international campaign for this tour with the ODI series, which will run from 27th November to 2nd December 2020. Then the T20I series will run from 4th December to 8th December 2020. The much-awaited Test series will begin on 17th December 2020 and it has been scheduled till 19th January 2021.

While the ODI series will be part of the inaugural ICC Cricket World Cup Super League, the Test series will be part of the ICC World Test Championship.

I think we needed 13 off the last over and Mitchell Starc was bowling: Matthew Wade

Before the beginning of the ODI series, both the Indian and Australian players are busy in their final preparation process. Recently, in the Australian nets, while the players got certain scenario moments, Matthew Wade had to score probably 13 runs in the last over against Mitchell Starc.

In a recent interview published by cricket.com.au in their social media accounts, Wade claimed, “I think we needed 13 off the last over and Starcy (Mitchell Starc) was bowling so that’s good, you’ve got the best finisher in the world bowling the last over. Got it down to the last couple of balls. I went to lap him second last ball and it was a wide and i just gave him one because I knew that workloads these days. they can’t bowl anymore balls.”

While Wade had to score 4 runs on the final delivery, the left-arm fast bowler Starc proved his best as Wade fell three runs short from the target.

Wade continued, “And then he hit what Starcy does, which is an inswinging yorker last ball, I needed four to win. I chunked it out to point for one and walked off losing which will happen more times than not off Starcy.”

Both Mitchell Starc and Matthew Wade have been named in both the limited-overs and Test squads for the upcoming home series against the visiting team India.
