The fiery Australian fast bowler, Mitchell Starc reckons that the upcoming Border-Gavaskar series against India will be a great opportunity for teh mighty Aussies to get the trophy back and rectify their mistakes which they committed in the series defeat against Virat Kohli’s team at home in 2018/19. Under the captaincy of Kohli, India made history by winning their first Test series on Australian soil in the 2018-19 rubber.

Recalling the 2018/19 series, Starc said that Team India was better than Australia with both and bowl during that summer. During a recent chat with ESPN’s The Cricket Monthly, Mitchell Starc said, “You never want to lose a series and you certainly never want to lose one in Australia. India was just better than us throughout the (2018-19) series with bat and ball.”

He further added, “Sure, we haven’t hidden away from that. We needed to be better in all facets of the game and this summer’s certainly a chance to rectify that.”

Starc is the most prolific wicket-taker in the short history of the day-night Test matches-ball Test cricket with 42, rejoined the team in Adelaide on Monday, giving him just a couple of days to get ready ahead of the big game. 

Talking about the same, Langer said, “I just felt I probably tuned into the noise too much, and I guess I went from someone who didn’t mind seeing or reading that sort of stuff and taking that as motivation to prove people wrong…Just with having multiple broadcasters and a whole bunch of radio and print and the rest, I probably read into that noise a bit too much.”
