Having bowled a match-winning spell against the Highveld http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Lions-c808 in a Group B encounter of the Champions League T20 2012 at the Newlands, Cape Town, Mitchell Starc, the Sydney Sixers’ fast bowler, has expressed that he is enjoying the extra pace and bounce on the South African tracks.
After being put in to bat by the Sixers, the Lions were off to a flying start through http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Gulam-Bodi-c1512, who took the attack to the Aussie fast bowlers, helping his side reach 50 runs in just the seventh over.
It looked as if the Lions were going to post a massive total on the board; however, that was not to be, with Mitchell Starc bowling a brilliant spell, restricting the opposition to just 137 runs, which was easily chased down by the Sixers.
The 22-year-old cricketer picked up three victims, having conceded merely 19 runs in his quota of four overs. Starc was named as the Player of the Match for his stunning effort with the ball.
The left-arm fast bowler did well in the recently-concluded http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758. The left-arm fast bowler expressed during the post-match presentation ceremony that he is enjoying the additional pace and bounce on the South African pitches.
Starc further revealed that all the Sixers’ fast bowlers, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Iftikhar-Ali-Khan-Pataudi-Nawab-of-c64075 Cummins and he himself, share a good bond.
"Playing a lot and working on a few little things, ball is coming out of the hand nicely. Like bowling at the death. Wickets in Colombo [during the World Twenty20] were nice for the quicks early on. Good to bowl here with the pace and bounce. All of us [Sixers fast bowlers] are good mates," said the budding speedshttp://www.senore.com/Cricket/Thomas-George-Burrows-c93472er.
Sydney’s captain, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/BJ-Haddin-c1170, on the other hand is over the moon with his bowlers’ performance and understands that they made the batsmen’s job much easier.
The wicketkeeper/batsman mentioned, "We didn;t start well with the ball, we fought back well, happy with the total we got to chase.”
