Starc On Verge Of Surpassing Dev, Steyn During Bangladesh Tests
World Test Championship: Veteran Australia fast bowler Mitchell Starc is on the verge of surpassing fast-bowling legends Kapil Dev and Dale Steyn on the all-time Test wicket-takers list as Australia prepare for a two-match World Test Championship series against Bangladesh, starting on August 13 in Darwin.
Left-arm pacer Starc, 36, currently has 433 Test scalps to his name. A solid performance against Bangladesh could see him eclipse former India captain Dev (434) and South African great Steyn (439) and break into the top 10 wicket-takers in men’s Test history.
However, Starc insisted individual milestones remain secondary as Australia aim to secure points for next year's World Test Championship final at The Oval. "It means I've played a bit. It is cool and very humbling to be spoken about it with those guys. But that stuff doesn't mean a whole lot while you're still playing. You don't get too far ahead," Starc was quoted as saying by the ICC on Wednesday
