In a video posted by Cricket Australia, Mitchell Starc said, “Shell, Meg and all the girls over there in South Africa, from us here in India. It’s been great to watch the tournament so far. You keep finding ways of winning from even positions you probably shouldn’t, so credit to you there. You keep winning these things. Good luck. I hope it’s another great game and you lift another trophy for you.”
Nathan Lyon was also seen cheering for Starc’s wife Alyssa Healy, who is set to play in the final. “Go on Mrs. Starc,” said the off-spinner. Speaking further about Healy, Starc said, “Yeah, she likes the big games and been building nicely. She’s a big game player.”
“Everyone’s been going great, batters, bowlers, keepers. Sure it’ll be a fantastic game and I look forward to watching and hopefully celebrating the girls’ success over here in India,” added Starc.
Australia Women clinched a thrilling victory against India Women by 5 runs in the semifinal. When asked whether he was nervous watching that game, he replied, “Not really, I think they turned it on in the end when trhey had to. They keep finding ways to win, so they have done that for close to ten years now.”
“I think they have made every final of every T20 World Cup. I think that’s an incredible record. Probably the best single sorting World Cup record of all time I think. So what’s one more? May as well knock it off in the final and lift the trophy and celebrate well in South Africa,” Starc concluded.
The left-arm pacer missed the first two Test matches of the ongoing Border Gavaskar Trophy against India. He is set to return to the playing XI for the upcoming Third Test match after recovering from the finger injury.
