Australian pacer Mitchell Starc has continued his good run across Cricket World Cups, keeping up his record of taking at least a wicket in every match he has been part of.

In 21 World Cup matches, Starc has taken 54 wickets at an average of 15.79 with best figures of 6/28. He has three four-wicket hauls and three five-wicket hauls in World Cups.

For the first time in the Cricket World Cup 2023, Australia had the opportunity to inflict a non-striker run-out, a form of dismissal that often triggers debates on social media, in the match against Sri Lanka on Monday. Mitchell Starc, with the ball in his hand, could've dislodged the stumps at the non-striker's end where Sri Lanka's Kusal Perera was placed. However, Starc decided against doing so in the first instance and instead gave the batter a warning. Starc also informed the line umpire about the same, highlighting how Perera is becoming prone to leaving his crease early.
