Australia v India: Mitchell Starc expecting early finish – Cricket News Update
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mitchell-Aaron-Starc-c76392, the left-arm pacer, is confident that Australia will pull-off a victory against India within three days. At the close of play on day-two of Perth Test, the tourists were trailing by 120-runs and they had six wickets
in hand to avoid an innings defeat.
Eyeing an early finish against the Men in Blue, Starc said, “We feel we've got enough to hopefully close them out without having to bat again. But we will have to work pretty well tomorrow. The wicket is a bit flatter with the
grass on it, but the cracks are starting to open up a little bit. We'll have to bowl well, but I think we've got enough to get there.”
Starc came into the side at the expense of off-spin bowler, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Nathan-Michael-Lyon-c78822, who was dropped from the playing XI after a lacklustre performance in  the first two Test matches at Melbourne and Sydney. So far, the 21-year-old has vindicated
his selection for the match by notching four wickets.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/SR-Tendulkar-c2556 was one of the victims who fell to Starc’s lethal bowling. The 21-year-old was overwhelmed after taking the prized scalp. However, the speedster didn’t let this feeling distract him from his goal which was to finish
the match as early possible.
Starc, who is playing his third Test match for Australia, said, “It was an amazing feeling. Anytime you get a Test wicket is a great feeling but to get the 'Little Master' is a great feeling. More importantly we've got them four
wickets down in the second innings and looking to close it out tomorrow.”
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/R-Dravid-c2229 hold the key for the Indian team now. Kohli is batting on 21 while Dravid has scaled 32 runs. The duo has put on 37 runs for the fifth wicket and will look to build on the partnership when they come
out to bat on day-three. http://www.senore.com/Cricket/MS-Dhoni-c2028 may not be able to provide much assistance to the batters, considering his form with the bat in the past few matches.
The Perth Test between http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Australia-c746 continues on Sunday, January 15, the match will resume at 02:30 GMT.
