Starc had a terrific opening to The Ashes 2025/26, picking a wicket in the very first over the match.
The Aussie fast-bowling veteran also sent back the other English opener, Ben Duckett, catching him LBW.
Starc completed his 5-wicket haul, and then added two more to pick 7 wickets in the first innings, restricting England on 172.
The ICC WTC 2023 champion secured a wicket in the first over of the second innings as well, notably with an extremely athletic caught-and-bowled, finishing with two more to complete a 10-wicket haul.
He dismissed Ben Stokes in both innings, which means that the English captain has been dismissed 11 times by the Starc in Tests.
