Shaun Marsh's international career has been a stop start affair. After making his debut in 2008, Marsh has been in and out of the side because of poor form or injuries. There were no doubts about Marsh's talent as a batsman, but unfortunately he hasn't been able to do justice to his talent.

However, in the last few years he has been able to feature in Australia's Test side. And after the ban on Steve Smith and David Warner, the Southpaw has been a regular in the ODI side as well.

His place in Australia's World Cup side seemed to be in jeopardy after a below par series against India. But he played some solid innings against Pakistan and sealed a place in the squad. Ironically, this will be Marsh's first World Cup appearance in his 11-year long career.

Pat Cummins, who is Australia's in-form pacer, is going to be the team's youngest player in the World Cup. Cummin:s' initial years in international cricket were plagued with injuries. But he has found his feet in the last couple of years and is all set to be Australia's most potent weapon at the World Cup. Cummins was also part of Australia's World Cup winning squad of 2015.
