It is a great justification for the hard work he has put in and (for) probably some of the choices he has made over the last eight years to put his country first, she said. Soon after Starc made history, a video showing Healy enjoying a beer and expressing her astonishment with facial expressions did the rounds in social media platforms, something the Australia Women's skipper rubbished.
