Over the years, Mitchell Starc emerged as one of the finest pace bowlers to have ever represented Australia in the T20 Internationals (Pic: X/@ICC)

Making his debut in 2012, Starc has donned the Australian colours on 65 occasions in the shortest format of the game (Pic: AFP)

He drew curtains in the format with 79 wickets under his belt. His best bowling figures in T20Is remain four wickets for 20 runs. With the willow, the left-handed also has 98 runs, with a top score of 14 runs (Pic: AFP)

The 35-year-old also walked away from the format as the second-highest wicket-taker for the Aussies in the format. Enjoying the top spot on the list is spinner, Adam Zampa, who has so far claimed 130 wickets in 103 matches (Pic: AFP)

He was also part of the Australian team, which won the ICC T20 World Cup in 2021. Heading into further T20I assignments, the Aussies may find it difficult to find a player to fill the shoes of a player of Starc's calibre (Pic: AFP)
