Mitchell Starc: Barbados Pitch Holds Key to Different Outcome

Mitchell Starc believes the pitch at Kensington Oval, Barbados will play a crucial role in the game, offering different dynamics than the Lord’s surface. He sees the variable bounce as an advantage for bowlers, unlike the batting-friendly Lord’s wicket. Starc is also emphasizing the importance of setting a challenging total for the West Indies, while noting their fielding errors and the impact of Shamar Joseph’s bowling. He mentioned that on the first day the ball either kept low or jumped up to create a wicket. Starc is looking forward to the morning and capitalizing on the partnerships to increase the score, and feels that the conditions ensure that no score is safe.
