Alyssa anticipated the question to be top of the list before those relating to the India-Australia series. “Just no questions about IPL,” Alyssa said as she sat to address the media, before bursting into laughter, indicating to the floor to bring it on.
The first question was on Starc. Alyssa said: “We’ll get the IPL out of the way, will we? It is an amazing moment for Mitch. It is a great justification for the hard work he has put in and probably some of the choices he has made over the last eight years to put his country first. Amazing day for him and Pat [Cummins, who went for Rs 20.50 crore to SRH].”
