Mitchell Starc was breathing fire at the Adelaide Oval but as he locked horns with the Indian batters on the opening day of the second Test on Friday but on the boundary, he was involved in funny banter with fans who teased him about his former IPL franchise Kolkata Knight Riders.
As Starc has having a drink near the boundary, a few fans tried to catch his attention by shouting “Starcy loves IPL”. The Australian speedster was well within the hearing distance of the chants and he responded with a gesture which seemingly delighted the fans.
Watch the brief interaction below
Starc was bought by Delhi Capitals for Rs 11.75 crore at the last month’s mega auction held in Jeddah. It was a steep pay-cut for the Aussie star who commanded a record Rs 24.75 crore at the mini auction last year when KKR secured his services.
Before Shreyas Iyer and Rishabh Pant overtook him, Starc was the costliest player bought in the history of IPL auctions.
