Mitchell Starc took nine wickets to help Australia take a 1-0 series lead before the Boxing Day Test match at the MCG
Signing off. On behalf of Geoff and myself, thanks for your company on the OBO throughout the Test. We’ll see you again on Boxing Day. Until then, have a happy and safe Christmas. Bye for now!
Mitch Starc speaks. He is the player of the match for his match figures of 9/97. He’s also thrilled with how the quicks got it done with Hazlewood. A technical change has helped him a lot this year working with Andre Adams at NSW, which has got him into a better head space as well. Will be enjoying a few days off before getting ready for the MCG Boxing Day Test.
