Mitchell Starc Believes Doggett Is Set For Test Debut Ahead Of Ashes Opener
The West Test: Australia pacer Mitchell Starc has called Brendan Doggett’s rapid rise a “hot streak,” stating that he's all set for his potential debut.
Starc also mentioned that being the last of Australia’s big-three fast bowlers to stand made him feel "old," but he strongly supported the team’s depth to succeed in The West Test from Friday.
During a smooth training session at Perth Stadium on Wednesday, Starc was playing exceptionally well, and Doggett — the preferred choice to replace the injured Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood — delivered a deadly ball spell.
