“I love batting in the powerplay”: Mitch Marsh ready to flourish at Number 3 for Australia in ICC T20 World Cup 2022

Mitch Marsh is ready to make an impact in the upcoming T20 World Cup by playing at the number 3 spot in the tournament.

The T20 World Cup is set to start soon in Australia, and the home team would want to retain their crown in their home conditions. All-rounders have always played an important part in Australia’s success, and the case will be the same this time around as well.

The rise of Mitchell Marsh has been excellent for the Australian side, and he will again play a vital part in Australia’s T20 campaign. Marsh’s fortunes changed when he started batting at the number three spot for the Australian team. He first batted at that position on the last West Indies tour, and he has made that place his own since then.

Marsh won the Man of the Match award in the final of the last T20 World Cup as well, and he would again want to make that impact in the upcoming T20 World Cup. He also won the Men’s T20 Player of the year award in the last Australian awards.
