Australia’s stand-in captain for the ODI series against India, Mitchell Marsh, will be keen to step up in the absence of regular skipper Pat Cummins. Notably, the leadership role brings out the best in the all-rounder, especially with the bat. The right-handed batter recently returned with scores of 88 and 100 in the first and third ODIs against South Africa in August. The 33-year-old continued his purple patch in the T20Is against New Zealand, smashing 85, 9*, and 103* as the Aussies won the series 2-0.
Marsh loves playing against India, having amassed 473 runs in 11 innings at an average of 59.12 with the help of one century and three fifties. The medium pacer is equally handy with the ball, returning with four scalps in six innings at an economy rate of 6.37. He, however, hasn't bowled since missing out on the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy due to a back injury earlier this year.
