The Australian cricket team faces a big challenge ahead of the second Test against India in Adelaide, with their T20 captain Mitchell Marsh injured. Keeping this in mind, the team has made Beau Webster his replacement. If Marsh does not recover before the start of the Adelaide Test, Webster may also get a chance to debut.

Mitchell Marsh is injured

Marsh’s injury is a matter of concern for the Australian team. In the first Test match against India, he bowled 17 overs in two innings and took three wickets. However, he suffered pain after the Perth Test, raising questions about his fitness for the upcoming match in Adelaide. There are still ten days left for the Adelaide Test to start. In such a situation, the medical team will work with Marsh to assess his recovery.

Webster has shone with both ball and bat

Webster is not only a strong batsman but also a right-arm seam bowler. Last summer he took 30 wickets at an average of 29.30 in the Sheffield Shield. His recent performances have been strong, where he scored 145 runs and also took seven wickets for Australia A against India A. He also finished a successful season in England, playing for Gloucestershire in the County Championship, where he scored 233 runs and took 16 wickets.

great performance

Webster recently showcased his all-round ability in the Sheffield Shield match against New South Wales. He played innings of 61 and 49 runs in the match, while also taking 5 important wickets with the ball. This also included two wickets taken in the last over, which helped Tasmania secure victory.

In the press conference after the match in Perth, Australian captain Pat Cummins said about Mitchell Marsh, ‘Marsh has been struggling with some minor injuries since the UK tour. He had some trouble at the end of this Test match, so he has a chance to freshen up and perform well in the next ten days.
