In an electrifying World Cup warm-up encounter, the Australian speedster Mitchell Starc demonstrated his extraordinary prowess by accomplishing a stunning hat-trick against the Netherlands.

Starc, renowned for his lethal left-arm pace, left the Dutch squad in disarray with an impressive display of fast bowling. He managed to take wickets with the final two deliveries of his first over and continued his dominance with another wicket on the very first ball of his second over.

During his devastating spell, Starc executed a perfect lbw delivery to dismiss Max O’Dowd for a duck. He then proceeded to dismantle the stumps of Wesley Barresi and Bas de Leede with his fiery pace.
