IND vs AUS: Mitchell Marsh Hits Hat-Trick of Boundaries Against Jasprit Bumrah, Scores 18 Runs in Over

Mitchell Marsh scored 96 off 84 deliveries before caught by Kuldeep Yadav

India’s star pacer, Jasprit Bumrah, who missed the second ODI due to family reasons, has returned to the team for the third ODI match. However, he looked far from his best as he was taken to the cleaners by the Australian batters from the word go.

However, the match took a dramatic turn during Bumrah’s fourth over of the day, constituting India’s 23rd over. It was in this over that Australia’s opener, Mitchell Marsh, launched a relentless attack, smashing Bumrah for three consecutive boundaries and a colossal six. Bumrah’s over ultimately cost India 19 runs, with the first ball conceding a single.

Marsh managed to reach a half-century. It’s worth noting that he had missed the previous ODI against India in Indore and hadn’t been in top form during the ODI series against South Africa. This fifty should certainly give him a confidence boost as he prepares for the ICC World Cup 2023.
