During a blind ranking game, she ranked five of cricket's greatest bowlers according to her preferences. Interestingly, her husband, Australia's star fast bowler Mitchell Starc, was also included on the list.

Starc gets the last rank.

Healy had to blindly rank five great bowlers. She didn't know who would be next. The first name that came up was legendary Australian spinner Shane Warne, and Healy placed him straight at number one. Jasprit Bumrah 's name followed. Healy placed the Indian fast bowler at third place.

Then came the name that made the whole game interesting. As soon as Mitchell Starc's name came up, Healy, without much thought, placed him in fifth and last place. Glenn McGrath then took fourth, and Pat Cummins second. Thus, in Healy's final rankings, Warne came in first, Cummins second, Bumrah third, McGrath fourth, and Starc fifth.

"No worries," Stark replied.

After the rankings were finalized, Healy realized she might have made a big mistake. She admitted she was in a difficult situation, but wasn't too worried about her decision. Mitchell Starc also reacted to the video. Starc, who was playing a Test match against Bangladesh, humorously captioned the video, "No worries." Despite his wife's rankings being last in the rankings, Starc didn't take it too seriously and instead made light of the situation with his own unique response.

At the same time, Starc made a big record on the field.

Interestingly, at the same time as this video of Alyssa Healy was making the rounds, Mitchell Starc was setting a major record on the field. On the first day of the Test against Bangladesh at the Marrara Cricket Ground in Darwin, Starc dismissed Shadman Islam. This wicket took his Test wickets to 434, surpassing Sri Lankan spin legend Rangana Herath, who had taken 433 wickets in his career. With this, Starc became the leading wicket-taker for a left-arm bowler in Test cricket.

Alyssa Healy's illustrious career

Alyssa Healy retired from international cricket in March 2026. She scored 3,054 runs in 162 T20 Internationals and 3,777 runs in 126 ODIs for Australia. She also scored 502 runs in 11 Test matches. Healy has been a part of Australia's six T20 World Cup and two Women's ODI World Cup winning teams.

He has also been awarded the ICC T20I Cricketer of the Year twice. Healy's humorous decision to place her husband last in the blind rankings may have sparked discussion on social media, but Starc, meanwhile, demonstrated why he is one of the most successful left-arm bowlers in the world by setting records on the field.
