MELBOURNE: Player of the tournament at recent World Cup, Australia pacer Mitchell Starc will be out of action for up to three weeks after suffering a minor knee injury.
The 25-year-old left-arm paceman who climbed the mountain at World Cup 2015 with his fiery bowling after taking 22 wickets in Australia’s World Cup winning campaign but suffered a left knee niggle during the closing stages.
Team physiotherapist Alex Kountouris said, “Starc had some knee soreness during the later stages of the World Cup.”
