Starc hits contract jackpot
Cricket Australia unveiled Wednesday a list of 20 contracted players
for the new season amid reports that star bowler Mitchell Starc is
celebrating a million dollar pay-day.
With the retirements of former skipper Ricky Ponting and stalwart
Mike Hussey, funds were freed up for a changing of the guard in the
lucrative 2013-14 roster.
Sydney’s Daily Telegraph said Starc was the big winner when the
National Selection Panel (NSP) made its pick. The 23-year-old left-armer
broke onto the scale last season with a base deal reportedly worth
Aus$230,000 (US$240,000) a year.
