Starc at ACA-VDCA – Key Notes
Although detailed venue-specific data isn’t mentioned, Starc’s ability to generate pace and bounce on a pitch like Vizag—known for some early carry and later slowness—makes him a vital weapon. His variations and yorkers suit both innings, and the left-arm angle adds more difficulty for right-handed batters.
Why Starc Can Be Dangerous Today
- New ball threat: Especially if DC bowls first, Starc can remove SRH’s top-order firepower.
- Death-over skills: Yorkers and slower balls are his strengths.
- He has a solid history vs big hitters, and players like Travis Head and Klaasen will need to be cautious.
