"Some People Think...": Mitchell Starc Contradicts Mohammed Shami's Take On COVID Era Rule That Sparked A Debate
The use of saliva to shine cricket balls in the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) has generated contradictory views. Ahead of the IPL 2025, the BCCI lifted the long-standing ban on the use of saliva, first imposed during the COVID-19 pandemic. While the likes of Mohit Sharma, Axar Patel, and others welcomed the upliftment of the ban, Australia star and Delhi Capitals pacer Mitchell Starc gave a completely contradictory reaction on the use of saliva. Starc's comment came after he brilliantly helped DC to claim a super over-win against Rajasthan Royals on Wednesday.
