In the match, Hyderabad, batting first, were all out for 159 runs in 19.3 overs. KKR chased the target in just 13.4 overs and won. The hero of this victory of Kolkata Knight Riders was Mitchell Starc, who took 3 important wickets for the team. Starc was named Player of the Match for his brilliant performance. Mitchell Starc took three wickets in the powerplay Sunrisers Hyderabad won the toss and decided to bat first, but it proved wrong. Mitchell Starc had dismissed Travis Head for a duck on the second ball of the first over. Then Starc sent Nitish Kumar Reddy (9) and Shahbaz Ahmed to the pavilion for golden ducks in the fifth over. Mitchell Starc broke the back of Hyderabad’s batting lineup by taking three wickets inside the powerplay, from which the opposition team could not recover. He took 3 wickets for 34 runs in his 4 over spell. We needed to take early wickets – Mitchell Starc After winning the title of Player of the Match, Mitchell Starc while talking at the post match presentation said, We know how important the powerplay is. These were the two teams who have dominated with the bat in the powerplay. We needed to take early wickets. The way Head and Abhishek have been playing throughout the tournament, they like to play with open hands. We just tried to swing the ball and not give them width. Kept the ball stump to stump and attempted a tough length. The spinners were effective and the entire bowling department was excellent. I think I was lucky (to take Head’s wicket), it was good to see him go to the pavilion early, it doesn’t always happen. We have been playing against each other. They (Arora and Harshit) are talented, they train hard. Harshit’s performance this year has been excellent. There is no doubt that he will take many wickets in the IPL and for India too.

In this match, Kolkata won by 24 runs and gained 2 more important points in the points table. The star of this match was IPL’s most expensive player Mitchell Starc. He bowled 3.5 overs and took 4 wickets for 33 runs. The most important thing was that Starc took 3 wickets in his last over. The thing is that Mitchell Starc’s half IPL season was very bad. He did not take many wickets and gave away a lot of runs to the batsmen. Then what happened that in the last over he took 3 wickets in just 5 balls and because of him Mumbai Indians got all out. The credit behind this brilliant performance is being given to his wife Alyssa Healy.

Why did Mitchell Starc get angry over the Impact Player Rule? What kind of question was asked…
When Mitchell Starc was asked the reason behind the poor figures of the bowlers, he blamed the impact player rule. Mitchell Starc (Pic Source-X) The 51st match of IPL 2024 was played between Mumbai Indians and Kolkata Knight Riders on May 3 at the Wankhede Stadium. In this match, the Kolkata Knight Riders team made a good score after a bad start and then gave a tough time to the Mumbai batsmen in the bowling. KKR won against Mumbai Indians by 24 runs and are at second position in the points table after gaining 2 more points. Mitchell Starc has a big role in this victory. Starc performed brilliantly and bowled 3 overs 5 balls in which he took 4 wickets for 33 runs. But he had bowled poorly in the last few matches, so after the match, when Mitchell Starc was asked the reason for his poor bowling, his answer was worth listening to. When Starc was asked the reason behind the poor figures of the bowlers, he blamed the impact player rule. Let us tell you that the ‘Impact Player’ rule in IPL has started from 2023. This rule was brought to make cricket more exciting but now cricketers seem unhappy about it. Rohit Sharma, Mohammed Siraj, David Milner and now Mitchell Starc have spoken against it. Let’s know what Mitchell Starc said on ‘Impact Player Rule’- “The Impact Player rules are changing things up a bit in the match. Because of this rule, there has been more depth in batting and everyone is getting a chance to bat till the lower order. Because of this rule all this is happening and big scores are being made against the bowlers in the match. The nature of the pitch and the ground also have an impact on this. When you have batsmen or batting all-rounders at number eight and nine, the batting order becomes very big and the bowler does not get a chance to make a comeback.” “At the same time, in the powerplay, the batsmen have no fear because you just have to cross the boundary to score runs. And if you are out, there is a batting line behind you. There has definitely been a lot of good batting in the tournament and it is only because of this rule that the batsmen are showing different confidence. Yes, there has been some great scoring and partnerships and some good individual performances with the bat too. But the reason behind the poor statistics of the bowlers is this rule itself.”

IPL 2024: “How will Mitchell Starc return to form this season? Irfan Pathan told the formula
Mitchell Starc & Irfan Pathan (Photo Source: X/Twitter) Team India’s former veteran all-rounder Irfan Pathan has given a big statement regarding out-of-form Mitchell Starc. He explained how Mitchell Starc can regain his form in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024. Kolkata’s fast bowlers have proved to be very expensive so far this season, they have bowled 8 overs so far this season, in which they gave away 100 runs. So far he has played 2 matches against Hyderabad and Bangalore. Let us tell you that in the auction held before IPL 2024, KKR had bought Starc for Rs 24.75 crore, but till now he has not been able to perform as per expectations. For this reason, Starc is being trolled a lot regarding his price tag. On Friday, March 29, Kolkata defeated Bangalore by 7 wickets. In this match, Starc recorded figures of 4-0-47-0. Pathan said Starc needs to find a way to make the ball more lethal for right-handed batsmen. The veteran said that once Starc finds his line-length, it will be very difficult for any opposition team to handle him. Irfan Pathan told Mitchell Starc the formula for comeback Regarding Starc, Irfan Pathan said on Star Sports, “When Starc is swinging the ball, he is in his best form. When that swing starts for a right-handed batsman, he can be even more lethal. And I haven’t seen that in the last two games. Perhaps he has not yet been able to adapt himself to the Indian situation. “Once he adapts to these conditions, or starts getting the inswing, he will be a bowler to watch throughout the IPL.” Steve Smith, Starc’s teammate in the Australian team, said that if Starc gets his swing and bowls at a speed of around 145 km/h, he can become a big threat to any opposition team. Smith said, “I think today he will face a right-handed batsman.” wobble Was trying to swing, which is a good option, but I think he has to keep the right line-length for that. He is a left arm fast bowler who can bowl at 145+ KMPH. For a right-handed batsman, there is no better option than the in-swing of the ball. This is one of the toughest balls to face. So if he gets that swing back, he will become one of the most lethal bowlers again.”
So this is how Mitchell Starc’s game changed, the bowler made a big revelation
The 34-year-old player is ready to play his 7th consecutive Test match. Mitchell Starc. (Image Source: Getty Images) Australian cricket team’s experienced fast bowler Mitchell Starc has given a big statement about his game. He has also told about the incident which had a big impact on his game. It is noteworthy that Starc is currently a part of the Australia team in the two-match Test series against New Zealand. So, when he will play the second test match against the Kiwi team in Christchurch from March 8, it will be his 7th consecutive match in this format. Very rarely has a fast bowler been seen playing the Test format with such consistency. However, Starc has adapted himself in this manner after his 14-year international career. Let us tell you that Starc is at fourth position in terms of taking the most wickets (354) in Test cricket for Australia. Ahead of Starc are the greats Shane Warne, Glenn McGrath and Nathan Lyon. Mitchell Starc made a big statement about his game Let us tell you that before playing the second Test match against New Zealand in Christchurch, Mitchell Starc quoted ESPN Cricinfo as saying – This was in the year 2010, I was still learning. At that time, when the injury occurred, the reports had reached the physio as well as the coaches. Stark further said- At that time I was told, you should take it a little strictly. At that time, coach Timmy Nielsen told me about my initial phase. Sometimes you need to be honest with the medical staff about your injury, but other times you will already know how to proceed. But during injury rehabilitation, you do a lot of other work which people or fans don’t see. Dealing with small problems is very painful for many people. But I think overcoming these problems comes with experience. You then find ways to make an impact and fulfill your role in the team.
