5 of the best death bowlers in World Cup history

#2. Mitchell Starc

There is perhaps no other bowler who made an impact as big as him at his debut World Cup. It is a rare sight to see a bowler winning the player of the tournament in a World Cup and Mitchell Starc gave us that moment of exclusivity when he was named one for his unreal performances in the World Cup of 2015.

In the tournament, he took 22 wickets at an average of 10.18 and an economy rate of 3.50 runs per over.

These numbers might seem like a fantasy story, but it wasn’t. Glenn Mcgrath was a great bowler—perhaps the greatest Australian fast bowler of all time—but not even he could boast of having the death-bowling skills that this young Australian has.
