Why Is Mitchell Starc Not Playing In The AUS Vs NAM T20 World Cup 2024? 

Mitchell Starc is not playing against Vs NAM (X)

Australia and Namibia are playing against each other in the 24th match of the T20 World Cup 2024, at the Sri Vivian Richards Stadium in North Sound, Antigua. 

In a significant development, Mitchell Marsh, captain of Australia after winning the toss announced that Mitchell Starc is not playing and has been rested likely because of niggle. Nathan Ellis replaces the left-arm fast bowler. 

The Australian team has been in commendable form in the marquee tournament as they have registered wins in both their matches they played, the first one against Oman and the second match against England.

The Aussies would like to continue their winning streak against Namibia and strengthen their position for the remainder of the tournament.

On the other hand, Namibia, find themselves fighting for a spot as they have one win in two matches, which came through a nail-biting Super Over against Oman.
