Mitchell Starc dismissed India opening batsman Yashaswi Jaiswal fell for a golden duck on the very first ball of the second test between India and Australia in Adelaide Oval. Jaiswal missed the flick on the first ball and was caught LBW in front of stumps. This comes after the last match exchange of words between the two. In the first test match in Perth Jaiswal had sledged Starc saying that «You're bowling too slow.».
India secured a commanding victory in the first Test against Australia at the Optus Stadium in Perth, defeating the hosts by a record 295 runs. Yashasvi Jaiswal's stellar 161 in the second innings, the highest score by an Indian opener on Australian soil, was a key highlight. However, an unusual exchange between Jaiswal and Mitchell Starc on Day 2 also caught attention.
During India's second innings, Jaiswal, after driving Starc for a boundary, defended a back-of-length delivery and remarked, “It’s coming too slow.” The comment, picked up by the stump mic, drew a smile from Starc as he walked back to his mark. Reflecting on the moment, Starc explained that he did not hear Jaiswal’s remark initially. “I didn’t actually hear him say I bowled too slow. I don’t say too much to people these days. I may have been back in the day, but now I just sort of get on with it. Played that flick shot, and I think I bowled pretty much the same ball, and he defended it. I asked where the flick shot was, and he laughed at me. We just left it at that,” Starc told cricket.com.au.
