Alex Carey Confident Mitchell Starc “Will Be Ready” For Sydney Test Against India

January 1, 2025: Alex Carey’s update on Mitchell Starc’s fitness is reassuring for Australian fans, especially with the Sydney Test just around the corner. Starc’s injury during the Melbourne Test, particularly his struggle with upper body discomfort, certainly raised some concerns, but it seems that he is determined to push through it. Carey’s confidence in Starc’s toughness speaks volumes about the 34-year-old’s character and resilience.

Starc has been a key figure in Australia’s pace attack for years, and it’s no surprise that he’s prepared to play through discomfort, especially with such a crucial match ahead. His commitment to the team and his ability to bowl at full pace, despite being visibly uncomfortable, was a testament to his professionalism during the Melbourne Test.

With Australia leading the series 2-1, the final match at the Sydney Cricket Ground is bound to be another thrilling contest. Having Starc available will be a huge boost for the Australian attack, alongside the likes of Pat Cummins and Nathan Lyon, as they look to close out the series.

It’s also worth noting Cummins’ performance in the Melbourne Test, being named ‘Player of the Match’ for his all-round contribution. His leadership and performances with both bat and ball have been crucial in Australia’s success in this series so far.

India will surely be looking to bounce back in Sydney, but with Starc in the line-up and Australia’s bowling attack firing on all cylinders, the hosts will be confident heading into the final match.
