NEW DELHI: Veteran Indian batter Cheteshwar Pujara has identified Australian pacer Mitchell Starc as a significant threat to India in the upcoming fourth Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. With 14 wickets in the first three Tests, Starc has been instrumental for Australia and is tied as the series’ leading wicket-taker for the hosts alongside captain Pat Cummins.
Speaking on Star Sports, Pujara praised Starc's evolution as a bowler, noting his marked improvement since previous encounters. "He has been their best bowler thus far in this series," Pujara said. "He has improved his bowling a lot in the last one to one-and-a-half years. If I talk about my personal experience, when he used to bowl in the last two series, we felt we could get runs. However, now it seems like when he comes to bowl, he will pick up wickets."
