NEW DELHI: A finger injury kept him out of the first Test against India in Nagpur but Australian pacer Mitchell Starc is optimistic about his chances of making it to the playing XI for the second Test, starting Friday in New Delhi.
Starc, who got injured while fielding against South Africa in December has had his finger in a splint for weeks but despite the lingering effects of the injury, the 33-year-old is doing everything possible to be available for selection.
