Yesterday, after beating England, Australia became the first team to grab a semi-final spot in this World Cup. Australia beat the host easily after having started superbly in both the inning.
Jason Behrendorff took 5 wickets in the game, but it was Mitchell Starc’s stunning yorker which grabbed the headlines. In the 37th over Ben Stokes playing on 89 had no answer to the 145 KPH perfect yorker by Starc.

England now left to play with New Zealand and India and need to win a game in order to qualify for the semis spot.
Twitter users are hailing the Strac for his toe-crusher delivery.

That, from Mitch Starc to Ben Stokes, has to be one of the best yorkers you will see. Almost certainly the ball that guarantees Australia a place in the semi-final.
