Yeah Al that sounds pretty crap to me, Looks like Mitchell Stark aint for me either.

 

Mitchell Starc bowled lightning fast on the last day of the Rawalpindi Test today. Elisa batted aggressively against Pakistan in the Women's World Cup match and scored 72 runs to lead her team to victory.

There was a time when Stark and Alyssa were batting at the same time.

This is believed to be the first time in the history of cricket that a husband and wife are playing a match against one country at a time. 

 

 On the other hand, former fast bowler of Pakistan cricket team Shoaib Akhtar could not help but comment on this unique incident.

Shoaib tweeted that "this morning when Starc was batting in the Test match against Pakistan, his wife Alyssa Haley was batting against Pakistan in the Women's World Cup."

 

He said it could be the first such incident in the history of cricket.

It should be noted that Pindi Test was drawn between Pakistan and Australia while in the Women's World Cup, Australia defeated Pakistan by 7 wickets.
