Digital Desk: During the first ODI against India at the Wankhede Stadium, pace spearhead Mitchell Starc made a significant achievement by dismissing Virat Kohli. With this, he surpassed Mitchell Johnson to become Australia's fourth-highest wicket-taker in international cricket. Kohli's dismissal marked Starc's 591st in international cricket, a remarkable feat.
It's worth noting that Shane Warner tops the list with 999 international wickets for Australia, followed by Glenn McGrath with 948 and Brett Lee with 718. Starc's impressive performance didn't end there, as he also dismissed Suryakumar Yadav and Shubman Gill in the first ODI, bringing his international wicket tally to 593, surpassing Johnson's 590.
Most international wickets for Australia
Shane Warne: 999
Glenn McGrath: 948
Brett Lee: 718
Mitchell Starc: 593*
Mitchell Johnson: 590
India's quest for 189 runs got off to a shaky start when Marcus Stoinis ousted Ishan Kishan in just the second over. The situation worsened when Starc removed Kohli and Suryakumar Yadav in consecutive deliveries. Gill managed to survive an lbw scare but eventually fell to Starc, who secured his third wicket of the match.
Australia's innings began strongly but soon unraveled in the middle overs. Mitchell Marsh's half-century provided the team hopes for a large total, as he formed strong partnerships with Steve Smith and Marnis Labuschagne. However, Marsh's dismissal by Ravindra Jadeja at 81 off 65 balls marked the beginning of the end for Australia. After that, Mohammed Shami took over, dismissing Josh Inglis, Cameron Green, and Marcus Stoinis as Australia's batting order crumbled from 169/4 in the 28th over to 188 all out in the 36th.
