Starc showing why he is not a test cricketer at this point in town. Without any stock ball to fall back on he just attempts yorkers, either sprays them (slapped for four) or just to full (and slapped for four). It's alright have a near unplayable delivery. you need to be able to build pressure around it though, and he doesnt have this.
I mean it's OK, he'll take three wickets in quick time when India are 7/500 and be a lock to the end of the Ashes. At the moment though he's bowling poorly, as he has for large portions of the home summer (in test cricket). If we have to have a lefty i'd go Johnson at present, he bowler better in the home test series and has a good record in India. Not that I like Johnson. Ultimately we should be playing Bird, who comfortably bowled better than Starc in the home test summer and is better suited to these conditions. And, at this point in time, a better bowler
