If I Was Australia, I Would've Picked Marsh At Top Of The Order For Perth Test: Vaughan
Perth Test: Former England captain Michael Vaughan opined that he would have picked Mitchell Marsh at the top of the order for the first Test in Perth, starting from November 21, pointing out the fact that he’s right-handed and "would have troubled England" in the Ashes opener.
Marsh, who has been in impressive form in the white-ball formats, last played a Test in the fourth match of the Border-Gavaskar Series at the MCG in last December, before he was dropped.
"I think Mitchell Marsh is a player for a couple of months now, has been Australia’s best player. I know it’s a different format, but his stillness at the crease has been very, very good. The innings that he played in 2023 at Headingley against 95 miles per hour of Mark Wood was exceptional, and the way that he plays pace bowling is why I would have gone with Mitch Marsh at the top of the order.
