Star all-rounder Mitchell Marsh of Australia has pulled out of the match against England due to personal concerns, which has caused another setback to the country’s World Cup quest.
Marsh will not be playing in Saturday’s match against England in Ahmedabad since he has returned home via plane to Perth. This comes after Glenn Maxwell declared ineligible for the match on Monday due to a concussion sustained on a golf outing.
In a statement released on Thursday, Cricket Australia verified that Marsh had returned home by plane on Wednesday evening. “Australian allrounder Mitchell Marsh has returned home from the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023 late last night for personal reasons,” the statement said. “A timetable for his squad comeback has to be verified. We will not be providing any more information at this time.
After recovering from a small calf injury that held him out of the past two matches against the Netherlands and New Zealand, Marcus Stoinis is probably able to return to the team. Cameron Green, meantime, expected to called up, while Marnus Labuschagne is probably going to stay in the middle order. For the match against England, Australia will only have 13 players fit; the only extra players available are Alex Carey and Sean Abbott.
On Thursday morning, Stoinis stated, “He flew home late last night; he’s got a family issue going on.” And family is really essential, as we all know. He is acting appropriately, making his way home, and visiting the individuals he has to see. I’m not sure when he will return, but I have no doubt that he will complete his tasks at home before leaving again.
