International Career
Mitchell Marsh got off to a strong start in his first Test series against Pakistan in the UAE in 2014, scoring 87 and 47 in his second Test. He went on to play the first two Test matches of the 2014-15 Border-Gavaskar Trophy before limping off on Day 1 of the second Test in Brisbane due to a hamstring injury.
During the 2015 Ashes tour, Marsh pushed Shane Watson out of the Test side and was given time to settle into the No. 6 spot, despite the fact that his bowling was undoubtedly his best attribute. However, owing to his erratic form and injuries, he was in and out of the series on a regular basis.
Marsh, however, made a successful return after impressive domestic results and was picked for the 2017-18 Ashes. He demonstrated his true prowess by slamming a century at the WACA in the third Test, ensuring his comeback. Mitchell followed up his WACA century with a second in Sydney, this time with his brother Shaun at the other end.

Marsh’s first ODI century came in the fifth ODI against India at SCG on January 23, 2016, five years after his debut. However, Manish Pandey’s match-winning 104-run inning, which helped India chase down a steep target of 331 runs, overshadowed his unbeaten 102-run inning.
