Australia’s lethal pacer Mitchell Starc impressed everyone with his match-winning performance against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) on March 30. He claimed a fifer, reducing the dangerous SRH team to just 163 in the first innings.

DC eventually went on to win the game by seven wickets, but the weakness of Travis Head against Mitchell Starc was very evident. The batter hit two cracking boundaries against Starc in the first over, but the bowler dominated later by dismissing him.

While having a discussion about the player battle on a LiSTNR podcast, the host asked Alyssa Healy, Australian cricketer and Starc’s wife, about this rivalry and whether she was aware of it or not.

“You know Sunday night flick the TV on Look at that Mitch Stark charging in against Travis Head and got him again So I don’t know if Mitch sends Travis I don’t know a card from the Easter Bunny and it’s a picture of him or something like that because it’s seven innings 29 balls eight runs five wickets the head-to-head stats Is this known between the two,” asked the host.

Healy confidently confirmed this and said that Starc is aware of this and keeps reminding Head about it as well. The cricketer revealed that Head tries to avoid playing Starc as much as possible, but somehow, he comes in front of him during a match and gets out.

“Yeah Mitch Mitch knows it I dare say he reminds Trav of it as well, and it is in Trav’s head because Trav normally faces the first ball, and every time it’s Mitch opening the ball, he doesn’t, but Mitch gets stuck into him, like you got to come down here eventually mate So you may as well get it over and done with But um yeah you sure as a batter I know exactly who gets me out a lot So you try and avoid them where possible And bad luck Trav,” said Healy.

Captain Axar Patel has handled the situations really well in both games, encouraging the players and maintaining a brilliant atmosphere within the team. It is important to note that Axar is captaining an IPL franchise for the first time. This speaks highly about his captaincy skills and how well is he capable of managing the team.
