Mitchell Starc record in IND vs AUS, Indian captain Rohit Sharma won the toss and decided to bat first in the second pink ball cricket test against Australia.
Mitchell Starc record in Test Cricket: Mitchell Starc has created history in the Adelaide Test match (IND vs AUS, 2nd Test). Starc made a record in his name in Test cricket which has been achieved only once by any bowler. Let us tell you that during India's first innings, Starc sent Yashasvi Jaiswal out LBW on the very first ball and sent him to the pavilion. As soon as Starc dismissed Jaiswal, he equaled a unique world record.
Mitchell Starc has become only the second bowler in Test history to take a wicket with the first ball of an innings on three occasions. Earlier, Starc had done such a feat against England in Brisbane in 2021, and against Sri Lanka in Galle in 2016. Before Starc, the only other bowler to do this was West Indies' Pedro Collins. (Most wickets on the first ball of a Test match)
New Zealand's great fast bowler Richard Hadlee, former England fast bowler Geoff Arnold, former Indian captain Kapil Dev and Sri Lanka's Suranga Lakmal have been successful in taking wickets on the first ball of the match twice in their career.
Earlier, Indian captain Rohit Sharma had won the toss and decided to bat first in the second pink ball cricket test against Australia. India made three changes in which Rohit, Shubman Gill and Ravichandran Ashwin returned to the eleven, Devdutt Padikkal, Dhruv Jurel. And Washington Sundar is not a part of the XI. Australia have included Scott Boland in the team in place of injured fast bowler Josh Hazlewood. India is 1-0 ahead in the five-match series after winning the first Test in Perth by 295 runs.
Rohit said at the time of the toss, “I am batting in the middle order which is different, but I am ready for the challenge. I have been here for two weeks. Now ready to play. ..He said, “What the boys did in Perth was fantastic. This is a long series, we will try to get most things right. Fast bowlers are happy [with the break]. We want to continue from where we left off." The Indian captain said, "The pitch is looking good, it seems a little dry at the moment, and there is a lot of grass as well. There will be something for everyone in it.
