So now before the start of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy between India and Australia at home, the player has given a big statement. Marsh says that whenever I come out to bat, I am troubling myself like any other person. It is noteworthy that in the beginning of his Test career, Marsh was not able to perform as per expectations. The 33-year-old all-rounder made his Test debut for Australia in 2014, but due to his lack of consistent performance, he was soon dropped from the team. After the Sandpapergate scandal, he not only returned to the team, but was also made the vice-captain of the Test team. After this, he was again dropped from the Test team within a year. However, after this, Marsh has been successful in playing white ball cricket continuously for Australia and is currently the captain of the Australian T20 team. Mitchell Marsh gave a big statement Let us tell you that recently in a discussion with Fox Cricket before BGT, Mitchell Marsh said – The truth is that I am a human being and whenever I come out to bat, I treat myself like any other person. I am disturbing you. I’ve worked really hard on the mental side of my game so I can go out there and get straight into my pre-ball routine, no matter how nervous I am. Marsh further said- For me, it is all about my preparation. If I prepare well, go into a game or an innings really confident, then if I fail, I can look at myself in the mirror and say I really did everything I could. Could do.
