Travis Head’s duck in the IPL wasn’t all bad news for Australia because it signalled a stunning return to form by his national teammate Mitchell Starc ahead of the T20 World Cup.

Mitchell Starc needed just two balls to justify his $4.4 million Indian Premier League pricetag, blasting out Travis Head’s stumps to set Kolkata Knight Riders on their way to a resounding victory over Pat Cummins’ Hyderabad in the qualifying final.

This was a logical call given the huge scores often chalked up by SRH in an IPL where the addition of the impact substitute has meant teams effectively get to play an extra batter. Mitchell Starc cartwheels Travis Head’s stumps in the IPL qualifying final between Kolkata Knight Riders and Mumbai Indians.“I guess I have played a fair bit of cricket, so I have been fortunate enough to play in some big games and some big occasions,” Starc said between innings. “Nine months ago we were here in front of a full stadium. It was nice to get the team off to a good start that we needed .

“I might keep that one in the back pocket for when he starts to give me some niggle and I have to pull it out on him,” Starc joked. “He’s been phenomenal through the tournament. But we knew he was going to be a big wicket.
