Micthell Starc is turning out to be the real role model as far as Australian cricket is concerned. After choosing to spend his time with his wife and Australia Women wicket-keeper batter Alyssa Healy during her mandatory quarantine in Queensland ahead of the India series, his yet another deed is melting the hearts of the Aussie bowler’s fans.
The lanky fast bowler recently bought long spikes for all the Aussie women bowlers, just in case they needed it in the day-night Test against the Indian team.
The incident took place on the first day of the play when debutant Stella Campbell was bowling and she had to put sawdust in the crease to make sure she didn’t slip in her run-up.
According to commentator and former Australian women player, Lisa Sthalekar, after the sawdust incident, Starc, who was in the stadium to support his wife and her team, asked the Aussie bowlers, “Have you got your long spikes?” To this, the girls replied that they just have their normal spikes.
Starc, who has played more than 200 internationals for Australia, applied his experience and bought all the Aussie bowlers long spikes, just in case they needed it.
