Delhi's capitals suffered a big blow when Mitchell Mitchell was ruled out of the limited-over games against Pakistan. Marsh was bought by Delhi Capitals thus his injury news was a big setback. Marsh is ruled out for the first ODI against Pakistan but if the injury is serious, he can miss a few games for Delhi as well.
In this listicle, we will discuss five names who can replace Marsh if he becomes unavailable for the season.
Five players who can replace Mitchell Marsh
David Weise
He has the experience of playing the ITL for Bangalore in 2015. The all-rounder was part of the Kolkata team in 2017 but never played the game. In eight games he played for Bangalore, he picked 16 wickets, averaging 25.13 at an economy rate of 8.68. With the bat, the Namibia player has scored 127 runs, striking at 141.11
Shakib Al Hasan
The all-rounder from Bangladesh has loads of experience of playing the ITL. From 2011 to 2021, he played for Kolkata twice (2011-2017 and 2021) and Hyderabad once (2018-2019). In 71 games he played, he scored 793 runs, averaging 19.83 and striking at 124.49. The left-hander's numbers don't reflect his ability as he is more successful in international cricket. With the ball, he has 63 wickets to his name.
Moises Henriques
With exactly 1000 runs and 42 wickets, the all-rounder from Australia can be a perfect replacement for Marsh. In his 13-year-old ITL career from 2009 to 2021, he has played 62 games for teams such as Kolkata, Delhi, Bangalore, Hyderabad, and Punjab. The Portugal-born player can bat up the order like Marsh.
Scott Kuggeleijn
The Kiwi player has played 18 games and has 16 wickets to his name, averaging 29.43 and striking at 20.1. He has an economy rate of 8.74. With the bat, he strikes the ball at 213.51 which is enough in the shortest format. He has been part of Bangalore and Chennai but didn't get enough opportunities to showcase his talent.
Ben Cutting
Another all-rounder from Australia features in this list. Cutting has played for Hyderabad, Mumbai, and Kolkata from 2014 to 2021. Hyderabad fans remember him for the cameo he played against Bangalore in the 2016 ITL final, which helped the team win the game eventually. Talking about his numbers with the bat and ball, he has scored 238 runs, striking at 168.79 in 21 games, and has 10 wickets to his name.
