Mitchell Starc has been cleared by Cricket Australia to play in the Indian Premier League after recovering from shoulder and elbow injuries.
The 36-year-old fast bowler has not played since late January after his Ashes heroics, where he played all five Tests and took 31 wickets in Australia’s 4-1 win.
He subsequently played five matches in the Big Bash League for Sydney Sixers, which is when he suffered the injuries while fielding.
Starc’s first appearance for Delhi will most likely be against Rajasthan Royals on 1 May.
His fellow Australian quick Josh Hazlewood has recently returned to play for Royal Challengers Bengaluru while Australian skipper Pat Cummins is expected to make his comeback for Sunrisers Hyderabad this weekend.
Cummins has been managing a back injury, having played just one Test in the Ashes in December.
