100 Ashes wickets: Starc joins the Australian legends Club

Mitchell Starc got off to a good start on Day 1 in Perth, taking three key wickets in the first session. He dismissed Zak Crawley in his first over before trapping Ben Duckett LBW with a quick delivery. Finally, he bowled Joe Root for a seven-ball duck. 

Starc's wicket of Joe Root put him into the group of Australian bowlers who took 100 Ashes wickets. Starc is now the 13th Australian bowler to accomplish this. Mitchell Starc is one of Australia's great fast bowlers in The Ashes. He has taken 100 wickets in just 43 innings, at an average of 26.79 and a strike rate of 45.

Glenn McGrath is Australia's most successful fast bowler in Ashes history, and Dennis Lillee is next with 128 wickets. Starc bowled superbly and kept England in trouble, leaving them at 105 for 4 in 23 overs at tea on Day 1. At that point, Harry Brook was batting on 28 runs not out , and Ben Stokes was on 4 runs not out.
