The match in Sheffield Shield, is currently making headlines with bizarre dismissal to batting stunts. During the match, Australian fast bowler Mitchell Starc has shocked teammates as well as fans after one of his videos went viral.
The bizarre moment was captured after Starc dismissed Josh Philippe of Western Australia on Tuesday in Sydney.
In the video, Mitchell Starc made a sharp delivery at Josh Philippe before hitting the batsmen on both his pads and knocking off the bails. Cricket.com.au posted the video on their social media handle and captioned it saying, "Off the bat, both pads, and onto the stumps! Starc somehow gets through the gate of Philippe".
Minutes after this incredible dismiss, the International Cricket Council (ICC) shared the video and asked: "What kind of sorcery is this, Mitchell Starc?"
