Mitchell Starc, the Australian pace bowler, has the opportunity to achieve several significant milestones during the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 season:
- Reaching 200 T20 Wickets:
Mitchell Starc, the Australian left-arm fast bowler, is on the verge of a significant milestone in his T20 career. As of December 2024, he has accumulated 193 wickets across 142 T20 matches, maintaining an impressive average of 20.59 and an economy rate of 7.77 runs per over. Securing seven more wickets will elevate him to the elite club of bowlers with 200 T20 wickets, underscoring his consistent performance and prowess in the game’s shortest format.
- Attaining 50 T20 Wickets in India:
Having taken 48 T20 wickets on Indian soil, Starc needs just two more to reach 50 wickets in India. Achieving this would make India the first country where he has claimed 50 T20 wickets.
- Achieving 100 T20 Wickets in Asia:
With 94 T20 wickets in Asian conditions, Starc is six wickets away from reaching a total of 100 T20 wickets in Asia. This milestone would underscore his effectiveness in subcontinental conditions.
These potential achievements highlight Starc’s consistent performance and his significant impact in T20 cricket, particularly in the IPL.
