Pat Cummins and Mitchell Starc are ready to be plunged into the IPL fray again -- and will get an immediate taste of what their great mate Josh Hazlewood has already endured when they pit themselves against the league's wonder boy Vaibhav Sooryavanshi.
The 2026 bow of the other two Aussie maestro quicks, with firing-again Royal Challengers Bengaluru's Hazlewood already having been working his wonders for a couple of weeks, has been eagerly awaited now they've recovered from their heavy workloads and any lingering injury trials and tribulations.
But with the Indian season now in full swing, Starc, cleared by Cricket Australia and with no lingering shoulder and elbow issues, is due to arrive in Delhi on Friday and will have a week's build-up before playing what is earmarked as his seasonal debut against Rajasthan Royals on May 1.
