In the 15th over of their opening match against Oman, Cameron Green replaced the left-arm pacer. He only bowled one delivery, which the umpire ruled to be a wide.
Right after the delivery, Starc was visibly in pain and physios came out to give him on-field treatment. Despite receiving the treatment, he went off the field. Glenn Maxwell came in to bowl the 15th over.
Starc's availability for the match against England was uncertain, however, Marsh revealed that Starc experienced cramps and will be ready for their second match.
