Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2018-19: 5 reasons why Marsh brothers can be the trump card for Australia

#5 Shaun's experience and Mitch's role as an all-rounder

Being the elder most member of the side, Shaun's presence matters a lot in the dressing room and he has reflected the same through his performances in ODIs.

Shaun was called back for the limited overs side earlier this year and he lived up to the expectations of selectors by amassing three centuries (2 against England, 1 against South Africa). Though all of them were in a losing cause, his presence gave the side a confidence to face hindrances.

After being appointed as the deputy to Paine, Mitch hasn't shown his master class. He can come handy to the skipper as a fifth bowling option. It is to be noted that Marsh's bowling figures aren't so bad and he can chip in to create some pressure on the opposition.

With all the five above stated reasons, the Marsh brothers will certainly be the one to watch out for and the team's coach Justin Langer has enormous faith on the duo. Can they match his standards? Only time will tell.
