In the history of the ODI World Cup, Mitchell Starc surpasses Glenn McGrath to become the fastest player to 60 wickets.
With the 2023 ICC Men's ODI World Cup, Mitchell Starc became the bowler with the fastest 60-wicket record in record history. The left-arm speedster's outstanding debut in the tournament's semi-final matchup against South Africa at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Thursday saw him accomplish this achievement in just 27 games.
Starc scalped two wickets in his first seven overs, first dismissing skipper Temba Bavuma before getting the better of vice-captain Aiden Markram.
Starc had claimed 27 wickets in the 2019 competition, compared to his 22 in the 2015 edition. Having already claimed 11 scalps this year, he is lethal and the five-time champions seem certain to make it to the tournament final.

This World Cup, Starc hasn't played at the peak of his abilities. Even though he had been rested from the last game against Bangladesh, the bowler was slowly making his way back into the starting lineup.
From the outset of this game, the bowler performed admirably, launching himself into full speed, bringing the ball in, and regularly hitting the right-handed hitters' pads.
Australia will be happy that Starc is regaining his groove ahead of a potential matchup at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on November 19 against the in-form Indian side. Starc has performed admirably for Australia with this strategy on a regular basis.
