MELBOURNE (Reuters) - Australia paceman Mitchell Starc can take 300 test wickets and join the ranks of the nation's great seamers if he can stay fit for long enough, coach Darren Lehmann said.

Left-armer Starc, who has 91 wickets from 25 matches, has replaced the retired Mitchell Johnson as Australia's pace spearhead but a succession of foot injuries have stifled the 26-year-old's output.
