‘I don’t regret any of it’ says Mitchell Starc on missing IPL money and playing for Australia’.
In a remarkable feat, Australian left-arm pacer Mitchell Starc joined the elite group of players who have won the ICC World Cup in all formats of the game recently by winning the ICC World Test Championship (WTC Final). Starc’s contribution has been invaluable to the Australian team, showcasing his skills and versatility across different formats. Representing his country remains his utmost priority, and he holds a deep sense of pride in donning the Australian jersey.
While Starc has previously participated in the Indian Premier League (IPL), he has not been part of the cash-rich league since the 2015 season. Despite the potential financial gains associated with the IPL, Starc has no regrets about missing out on the monetary rewards. Instead, he appreciates the opportunities he has received to represent his nation on the international stage.
Starc said “Money will come & go but I am very very grateful for the opportunity I had, over a hundred years of Test cricket and there have been less than 500 men who have played for Australia, that makes it special for me so I don’t regret the money from IPL”.
