Starc’s Spell To Tendulkar In 2012 Showed He Was Destined For Greatness: Ponting
The ICC Review: After left-arm fast-bowling spearhead Mitchell Starc delivered a dream spell in his landmark 100th Test against the West Indies, legendary Australia cricketer Ricky Ponting recalled how his spell to Sachin Tendulkar in Perth in 2012 showed him that he was destined for greatness.
In the pink-ball Test in Jamaica, Starc claimed a five-wicket haul in just 15 balls to end with career-best figures of 6/9 as West Indies were bowled out for 27, the second-lowest total in Test cricket’s history. Ponting recalled how Starc, playing only his third Test, kept Tendulkar on a tight leash by targeting his shoulder in the second innings of the WACA Test in 2012.
“I remember, he was bowling a spell to Sachin Tendulkar and was able to sort of bowl a short one, get up under Sachin's armpit and Sachin just sort of knocked one into short leg on the leg side.
