Mitchell Starc makes Wasim Akram proud
Australian bowling spearhead Mitchell Starc bowled one of the best deliveries one will see on the cricketing field, the delivery is being called by bowling greats as the ‘ball of the 21st century.’
The Ashes series came to life, after James Vince and Dawid Malan fight back came to a halt, when the left arm Starc, coming round the wicket managed to hit a crack and drag the ball back off the wicket into the off-stump of Vince.

The Aussie was praised by his peers and bowling legends. Pakistan’s Sultan of Swing Wasim Akram was reminded of his golden days at the office, when he used to rattle the opposition batting line.
That’s called a JAFFA! What a delivery @mstarc56 you reminded me of my bowling days and I enjoyed it to the hilt! You made left armers proud! @CricketAus

Meanwhile spin maestro, Shane Warne termed the delivery the ‘ball of the 21st century.’
