Mitchell Marsh, who has been serving as the interim captain of Australia’s T20I side for the past year, is set to lead the team in his first major tournament as skipper at the upcoming T20 World Cup. He expressed his gratitude for the opportunity and stated that it is an honor to represent his country and lead the squad in such a prestigious event.
Looking ahead to the tournament, Marsh is optimistic about Australia’s chances, given the team’s recent success. He believes that the squad has what it takes to perform well in what is expected to be a fiercely competitive competition. Australia will kick off their T20 World Cup campaign against Oman in Barbados on June 5, followed by matches against England, Namibia, and Scotland in Group B.
The final squad for Australia includes players such as Ashton Agar, Pat Cummins, David Warner, and Glenn Maxwell, among others. Marsh will be looking to these individuals to deliver strong performances and help lead the team to success in the tournament. Teams have until May 25 to make any changes to their squad, with further alterations requiring approval from the ICC’s Event Technical Committee.
