Mitchell Marsh will miss the remainder of the Delhi Capitals campaign due to a hamstring injury, but franchise Head Coach Ricky Ponting expects him to be fit in time for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024.

Marsh played four games for Delhi Capitals in this season, scoring 61 runs and picking one wicket for his team.

He picked up a hamstring injury early in April, and after missing a couple of matches for his franchise flew back home to Perth on 14 April to manage his recovery.

Marsh’s fitness was a key concern for his franchise as well as Australia, with him expected to lead the side at the upcoming ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024.

Marsh has 1432 runs at an average of 34.09 and a strike rate of 135.34, with nine half-centuries to his name in T20Is. Additionally, he also has 17 wickets at an average of 22.76 for Australia in this format.

He was a key component in Australia’s maiden Men’s T20 World Cup win in 2021, scoring 185 runs at an average of 61.66 and a strike rate of 146.82, contributing with a match-winning 77* in the final against New Zealand.
