They are the second test playing cricket couple of the world. Starc and Healy are one of the few couples who have played Test cricket for their country.  They are in fact the only second pair of Test cricketers after English couple Roger Prideaux and Ruth Westbrook Prideaux. While Roger played three Tests for England from 1968 to 1969, Ruth appeared in 11 Tests between 1957 and 1963.
