Mitchell Starc Travis Head wicket

Ravi Shastri asked how Mitchell Starc was able to dismiss Travis Head for a duck during the IPL 2024 Qualifier 1 on May 21, Tuesday and said the whole India wants to know after the Aussie opener tormented them in the World Cup final. Head scored a fine hundred against India in the final in Ahmedabad. However, the SRH opener didn’t make any impact on Tuesday. Starc produced a fine delivery to clean up Head for a duck in the second ball of the game, which set the tone for the game in KKR’s favour. After being adjudged as the Player Of The Match, Shastri asked how he was able to get the wicket of Head. Starc smiled and said he got lucky and it was nice to see the back of Head early. KKR vs SRH, IPL Qualifier 1: Highlights | Scorecard “Got lucky I guess (on taking Head’s wicket), was nice to see his back early, not always the case. We have been playing against each other in recent times,” said Starc. Starc would inflict further damage on the SRH batting order and ended up picking 3 wickets in total. KKR’s plan against Travishek Starc said that the plan was to ensure that no width was given to the free-scoring Abhishek Sharma and Head and bowl stump to stump. “We know how important the powerplay is. These were the two sides who have dominated in the powerplay with the bat. We needed to pick early wickets and get into their middle-order. The way Head and Abhishek have been playing thoughout the tournament, they like width and free their arms. We just tried to swing the ball and not provide them width. Bowl stump to stump and tried the hard length. The spinners were effective and the whole bowling department was great,” said Starc. Starc and KKR will now head to Chennai for the IPL 2024 final on May 26. Published On: May 22, 2024 Tune In
