Starc Should Get All Plaudits This Week That He Deserves, Says McDonald Ahead Of Pacer’s 100th Test
The Sydney Morning Herald: Ahead of Mitchell Starc set to play his 100th Test match against the West Indies in Jamaica, Australia head coach Andrew McDonald feels the left-arm fast-bowling spearhead is deserving to get all the plaudits coming his way this week.
Starc is set to become just the second Australian fast bowler after Glenn McGrath, and 16th player overall from his country to play 100 Tests..It’s an incredible achievement. You think of the surfaces that they play on in Australia. They’re firm, they’re hard, they take their toll. There’s a reason why there’s only two that have ever done it for Australia.
"He’s sacrificed a fair bit along the way as well… some of the IPL that he’s missed to get his body right to play for Australia. Really proud of him. He should get all the plaudits this week that he deserves,” McDonald was quoted as saying by The Sydney Morning Herald on Wednesday.
