Speaking as rain delayed the start of the fourth day, Starc claimed England was not playing as a quality side despite being 3-0 up in the series.
"It's frustrating, especially while we're on top and making all the running in the game as the only team with any intent really but it was the same at Old Trafford," said Starc.
Despite denials to the contrary, England is clearly intent on a draw, scoring just 215 runs on the third day in 98.3 overs, going to stumps at 4-247 in reply to Australia's 9-492 declared.
This is despite captain Alastair Cook claiming before the match that England wanted to achieve history by becoming the first team to beat Australia 4-0 in England.

"It was a little surprising being 3-0 on top and really talking themselves up as a quality side," Starc said of England's go slow tactics.
"I think the quality sides go out there and try and win series especially at this stage 4-0 so their lack of intent was a bit disappointing but we're not going to worry about them.
"We were going about our business yesterday and it was a great day for the bowlers and one of our better days on tour."
Starc claimed he had no idea what took place in the exchange between Kevin Pietersen and Michael Clarke shortly before tea on day three.
"I'm not too sure. I was at the top of my mark I think KP might have been asking Michael for dinner, I'm not sure."
