5 things we learned from Australia-India T20I series

#2. Starc needs to play more limited overs cricket

Starc isn't a regular fixture in the T20I side

Australia clearly lacks an X-factor in their bowling attack in white ball cricket and this is why left-arm pacer Mitchell Starc needs to play often. Yes, the workload management is all fine but winning games must be your top priority and sometimes playing matches regularly might keep them in good stead.

Getting a game in the final T20I after Billy Stanlake was injured, Starc was right on the money from the start. He was impressive in terms of accuracy as well as pace and looked fit for the battle during the Test series.

After a whirlwind start by Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan, it was Starc who provided the breakthrough but by then the openers had done the damage. It is very clear that Starc is head and shoulders above the rest of the bowlers that Australia has been using in the limited overs cricket and hence must be used more often.
