Mitchell Starc’s injury increases the worries of the Australian camp, Scott Boland gives update

Australian fast bowler Mitchell Starc remained on the field despite getting injured while bowling on the third day of the third Test against India. Starc felt pain in his back or ribs during the match being played in Melbourne, which increased the concern in the Australian camp. However, teammate bowler Scott Boland gave a positive update on his condition after the third day of play.

Starc’s injury: what is the situation?

Starc was seen holding his back while bowling, following which he was examined by team physiotherapist Nick Jones. However, Starc continued his bowling despite the pain. Scott Boland said Starc was feeling better and was bowling at 140 km/h, which is a sign of his fitness.

Boland said:
“He is fine. They may have mild problems with their back or ribs. But after the break he was seen bowling at a fast pace. I think he will be fully fit soon.”

Past performance and ability to recover from injury

Boland admired Stark’s strength and ability to endure pain. He reminded that Starc had broken his finger at the MCG a few years ago, yet he made an important contribution to the team by bowling at a speed of 140 km/h.

“Starc is a player who can perform brilliantly even in pain. For fast bowlers, such matches are rare when they play without any problems. He has played 90 Test matches so far and it shows how useful he is to the team even under pressure,” Boland said.

Boland’s impressive performance

Scott Boland bowled effectively for Australia on the third day, taking three important wickets for 57 runs in 27 overs. His performance gave strength to the team, while Starc failed to get wickets.

Stark’s important feature

Boland said of Stark’s greatest attribute:
“He is a bowler who maintains his pace and swing despite being injured. This is a rare quality that makes him an important part of the team.”

the way forward

With Starc’s injury under watch, Australia will need the full potential of their pace attack. The team management and physio team will ensure that Starc can bowl to his full potential in the next innings.
