Marsh did not feature for the Capitals in their last two matches, against Mumbai Indians on April 7 and Friday’s outing against Lucknow Super Giants. He last played on April 3 in Visakhapatnam where Rishabh Pant’s team suffered a 106-run defeat against Kolkata Knight Riders after conceding 272. Marsh was out for a duck in that game following moderate returns of 20, 23 and 18 in the first three matches for the Capitals.
Marsh left for Australia immediately after the defeat against Mumbai. It is learned that both CA and the Capitals have not taken a final decision on whether Marsh would be withdrawn from IPL.
Marsh has been carefully managed by CA over the last 12 months since returning to being a three-format player, culminating in being named Allan Border Medallist as Australia’s best player in all formats last year.
Warner to undergo scans
It is understood that Warner has a swelling and underwent scans upon landing in Ahmedabad on Saturday. The Capitals’ next match is on April 17 against Gujarat Titans and they are currently on four points after six games.
