433 Wickets and Counting! Twitter Reacts as Mitchell Starc Prepares for Bangladesh
Mitchell Starc is getting ready for the Test series against Bangladesh. Entering his 16th year of international cricket, he has been phenomenal for Australia in the longest format of the game. With 433 Test wickets, he aims to enter the top ten charts soon.
Australia will soon be going against Bangladesh in a Test series, where they resume their journey in the current WTC cycle. And this time, Mitchell Starc is once again a part of the team, as he gears up for the Test series and eager to represent Australia in the finals again.
Starc was seen by the fans practicing ahead of the series against Bangladesh. Being aged 36, it can be said that he has aged like a fine wine, as he still continues to dominate with his lethal seam deliveries. Watching his practice sessions has even made the cricket fans on Twitter react to the same.

On one side there is Cricket Australia who still supports Mitchell Starc at the age of 36. On the other side there is the BCCI, who still ignores Mohammed Shami and Bhuvneshwar Kumar.
