13 Aug 2020 11:00AMSYDNEY: Australian strike bowler Mitchell Starc has muscled up during the off-season and modified his bowling action as he targets crashing through the hallowed 100mph mark.

Starc has been knocking on the door for years, with a 99.7mph missile against New Zealand in Perth in 2015 his best effort so far. "It would be nice but at the same time the two occasions I've been up around that mark I've snapped my foot," he told cricket.com.au late on Wednesday ."Hopefully that's not the case but when everything's going well, that rhythm is happening and conditions suit, then I can get that speed gun up.Starc added that he had tweaked his bowling action, which had helped him retain his extreme pace and hone his radar.

"That's not to say that's not important, but I think I've found a happy medium with this little tweak to still have that better consistency but still have my pace.
