Who Said What: Cricketers react to Mitchell Starc's unplayable ball

​

Starc delivered an absolute jaffa to get rid of Vince

Mitchell Starc delivered one of the most incredible deliveries of the year as he got rid of the well-set James Vince on day four of the third Ashes Test at the WACA. The left-arm pacer's incredible ball certainly got the whole cricketing fraternity talking as many were left speechless at the sheer quality of the delivery that dismissed the England batsman.

With the score at 100/3 and a settled Vince batting on 55, Starc produced a brilliant ball to clean up the stumps and send the England batsman back to the pavilion. Here is a video of the ball:

It also drew praise from the best left-arm pacer to have played the game.

That’s called a JAFFA! What a delivery @mstarc you reminded me of my bowling days and I enjoyed it to the hilt! You made left armers proud! @CricketAus
