Sydney: Former Australian pacer Brett Lee believes fast bowler and countryman Mitchell Starc can prove to be a menace for the opposition batsmen in any sort of condition and on any strip.
Lee admitted he was concerned with how the Sydney wicket would behave in the semi-final clash against India on Thursday but added that it was not enough to stop super-Starc's arsenal of fast-paced yorkers.(Superpowers Collide in Sydney Blockbusters)
