Australia edged past South Africa by three wickets in a low-scoring thriller in Kolkata to book their place in Sunday’s Cricket World Cup final where they’ll face unbeaten tournament hosts India.
Mitchell Starc is anticipating a great spectacle after Australia booked their spot in the Cricket World Cup final against hosts India.
Starc helped the five-time champions conquer South Africa in the semi-final at Eden Gardens, claiming 3-34 and holding up his end in a vital partnership with captain Pat Cummins during the closing moments of a tense chase as Australia squeaked home by three wickets.
The intensity is only going to be dialled up when they take on undefeated home favourites India in Ahmedabad on Sunday, with up to 100,000 locals ready to roar their nation on at the Narendra Modi Stadium and it is a prospect Starc is ready to embrace.
