Australia fast bowler Mitchell Starc is being "monitored by medical staff" ahead of Australia's T20 World Cup clash against Sri Lanka tonight after being struck on the leg at training this week, Cricket Australia has said. Starc was struck by a return ball when bowling at practice earlier this week but he trained on Wednesday.
The left-arm fast bowler trained and bowled on Wednesday with a compression sleeve on his right leg, a positive sign that the injury is not a serious one, but a team spokesperson said he was still being monitored ahead of the clash with Sri Lanka tonight.
