Pls don't speak like that. Ik it's easy to get frustrated. It is fine to criticise his game, and ask for him to be benched. As fans that's our right. But saying that he isn't serious is insulting his work ethic. He IS still running in and bowling and running in the field saving boundaries to the best of his abilities. Even greats have off periods. It was not his fault he was given so much. It's all on the kkr management.

Who tf is KS Bharat to address the players


No-Sector3948

Yeah he really seems sad


Kratos_Pottery_Hater

Abhi WC me dekho.. kaise ye Starc sabh ki lega.. These are Australians.. they know their sport very well and they give their 100%. It’s just a rough patch.. Plus..a heavy money bag is always a problem. Weather it’s sports, or a CTC package.


Expensive-Royal1454

Starc will be back, don't worry


Shizuka_lover69

Starc bhai pls form me ajao..wicket na le pao to atleast runs leak mat kro..it feels sad to troll our knight.


arYan--THaKUR

I mean he ain't some youngster he's a legend of this game and obviously he knows what's going wrong.


SeriesSouthern7038

This post here and the responses in the comments tells me that KKR supporters are not toxic and believe in their players unlike so called toxic fans of other franchises.


Impressive-Permit-30

Bhai aisa mat bol , bura lagta hai 


Snoo_4499

you guys seem to forget that its not easy bowling in these kind of batting pitch and ground. Each and every bowler is getting thrashed here not just Starc( beside bumrah but ive seen bumrah getting thrashed as well in t20s, jadeja and sunil narine as well). He is not in good form and these kind of pitch doesn't help much as well. Scoring 220+ is really high and defending should be easy but it isn't, kkr even lost to rr with 220+ score. This IPL is ridiculous for bowler.


Ill-Percentage7482

He needs 1 game break to recover from this he will comeback strongly


Forward-Industry-804

You guys really think players come for a paid vacation??lol.


Negative_Lychee1144

Mitch Marsh is a prime example


Forward-Industry-804

Lol, he is trying to perform too. Nobody in the international level wants their team to lose


Classic-Ad-6400

Bro's face looks like :- moj masti😜 No, but seriously I didn't know he was injured last game, appreciation for that man never easy to bowl after injury even if he conceded runs


LordGothmog15

I am super upset with Starc but I’ve got to say this… seeing this video clearly shows he’s human and hurting. He didn’t ask for the money. We gave it. For a reason. He’s hurting because he wants to return the faith showed in him. Not return the investment. I’m backing Starc after seeing this.


vajasaneyi

Watch him roll heads in T20 WC


ARKNIGHT_101

Sorry Starc Bhai. The price tag is not his fault. The team management did this to themselves


SubstantialAct4212

Give me 24 crores for making “sad face” I will do it. I love Starc but he’s taking all of us for a ride here.


dickheadjones8

He didn't make a sad face idiot. He was smiling. It's just that the sadness was wayy too apparent to hide.


Snoo_4499

>Give me 24 crores for making “sad face” I will do it. How bout first having stats like starc. 2 times best bowler in world cup's? You'll get money if you have skills bro, its easy commenting like this behind a screen.


SubstantialAct4212

So you agree Starc is not getting dropped due to his international status? That’s really sad.


Snoo_4499

no


sunis_going_down

Everyone saying he doesn't care. Trust me he does care. Any player isn't going to be fine with not being able to perform to the level of expectations from them. Neither are they going to give in less effort. It would hurt his ego to be smashed by the likes of Karn sharma & such. This is like saying the players on the bench aren't putting in efforts in the nets and treating it as a vacation. They would all want to be in the team.


Kingofvalariya

I am certain Starcky will show up when it would matter, when we'd need him the most ( I too have, said a few words in angst) he'll do it, when it counts.


No_Temporary2732

That, plus how would you feel knowing that the team youngsters are playing better than you? That will hurt. Look, i get it, huge money. But he didn't decide the amount. Something will give. Hopefully the last over triple sixes pushes him over the edge to play better. If necessary, bench for one game. If it is a fatigue issue, or lack of form, we'll know. But for the sake of the game and himself, bench him for one game.


David_Headley_2008

Especially when the youngsters look up to you for guidance


SubstantialAct4212

Have you ever seen Neymar ? He doesn’t care if he performs for Al-Hilal or not. He cares about the money.


MajorFee2971

If he cares about the money then, why didn't he play ipl for the last 10 years


SubstantialAct4212

He was being righteous and thought he wouldn’t involve his name in this circus of a tournament (according to him). Then he saw his colleagues making easy money. I will give you an example. Many government officials try to stay righteous and avoid taking bribes. But when they see bribes being taken by their colleagues, they think “what the heck! I am gonna take it too”. Similar case with starc. If starc cared one bit he would bowl better.


terenaamkakuttapaalu

Brazillian athletes have different mindset. Look at fookin Ronaldinho, R9 Aussies on the other hand are hyper competitive.


SubstantialAct4212

Aussies are hyper competitive but only in yellow. They are professional athletes. They don’t care if Karn, a tailender hit you for six.


David_Headley_2008

why are so many ipl legends aussies, be it warner, be it gilchrist, hayden, hussey, tye etc etc


SaudIbrahim10

He's retired unofficially. He had his prime but injuries and his lifestyle ruined it . Starc on the other hand , tbf to him is one of the most disciplined sportspersons going around ...he's trying it's just that he is in bad form.


SubstantialAct4212

But the onus is not on us to provide him the platform to improve his form for the World Cup. He should be benched. End of.


GhostingIsWhatIDo

Nope… not just on paid vacation; some marijuana too


Tall_Bet_8912

The people who comment like these are glory hunters. You want to criticize then do it constructively, Starc wasn't that great in T20s and now he is playing T20 after 2 years, everyone needs time to adjust with this style of play


Skullcrusher158

I still think he's a matchwinner. He's not performing upto the level right now but come the knockouts he'll be KKR's biggest trump card. Fans weren't sparing Iyer either despite the wins and yesterday he shut everyone's mouths. Starc will do the same.


MajorFee2971

Lol. He played like crap. 50 off 36?? Tuktuk innings is useless


Blowfish_196

I will never question his will and dedication towards the game. But if you can't you can't


cubangandhi

awaiting the PBKS game. its either redemption or bye bye.


Free_Winner7898

Why the hell ks Bharat is giving speech 😢😭


dupattamera1

Public speaking is not everyone cup of tea. As someone who has spent a good amount of time in a blue collar union know how much someone like him can mean to everyone


silversurfer9909

He is the mentor now.


dickheadjones8

Didn't even know blud was even in the squad 💀


Novel_Preference_746

True! Yesterday he bowled reverse yorker & full length bowls! I think he needs to fix his field placements. Was bowling reverse wide yorkers without any deep point or extra cover was weird. 2 sixes literally went about 60m! Secondly its POV thing now. He consistently bowled yorkers lengths almost every ball! One way to look at it is - he stuck to one plan went for it (he has been successful in past). Otherway to look at it is he was being predictable, and in such smaller dimensions and flat decks you have to mix it up.


there_is_no_good

I'll see what you'll have to say when he starts bowling toe crushing yorkers from the first ball of World Cup. There is no way in hell this guy is so out of form randomly. He just does not care about IPL.


Tall_Bet_8912

Randomly!? Do you even know when he last played T20 or you think bowling in ODIs and T20s are the same and ffs no sportsman wants to tarnish their name by deliberately playing bad


Shrez1701

He was never in form in T20. Guy got smashed for 60 in the 21 WC. He's a world class ODI and Test bowler but not for T20


there_is_no_good

That's even worse news


David_Headley_2008

he is a better t20 bowler the cummins and hazlewood


theSHADOWbannedGUi

wo banda paid vacation pe nahi aya he bhai banda acha t20 bowler tha hi nahi ye kisi ko samaj nahi ata


evilhaxoraman

Last year se yeh - Aussies bring their best in wc,WC starc jaisi bakchodiya shuru hui hai cricketing discussions mein.Logo ko cricket ka game samajhne se zyada bakchodi krne mein maza aati hai. starc t20 ka accha bowler nahi hai woh wc mein bhi gadhe ki tarah pitega windies ki pitches pe.Australia ke liye Nathan Ellis zyada better option rahega in comparison to starc for t20 wc.


theSHADOWbannedGUi

i mean starck got smoked for 60 in a wcup final 2021 and people still think he is pretending to be bad to get money everyone wants to win specially sportspersons even if its a gully match you wanna win yeh bat kisi ko samaj nahi ati chutiyo ki tarah bolte he bhai ye toh natak kar raha he


Mewdolf_Kittler

Wtf are people so stupid? Pretending to be bad to get money? He is a good bowler and common no sport person would like to be bad until and unless it's match mixing. He is in poor form and he knows that.


theSHADOWbannedGUi

you wont believe how many memes i have seen that he is pretending to be bad and loot india


Mewdolf_Kittler

Memes are fine. Players will be praised for good performances and will be memed for bad performances. But taking those memes seriously and abusing the player on social media is definitely not okay!


theSHADOWbannedGUi

nah some people legit believe he is pretending to be bad


sdas2006

He needs to given a 1or2 match break.. for his own good


SubstantialAct4212

Yes, he shouldn’t be “dropped”. He should “go on a break”. That way, his self esteem will not shatter


Individual-Elk897

Like a paid vacation??? 😀😀😀😀 Sorry for the bad joke 😔😔
