The Australian team has been the most dominant in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy (BGT 2024-25) so far and is currently leading the series 2-1. While there have been some great performances from some of the Australian players the likes of Travis Head and Pat Cummins, there have been some notable players who have not had the best of series. One of them was Aussie all-rounder, Mitchell Marsh.

For the unversed, Marsh has had a forgettable BGT series with only 73 runs in the four games, while averaging only 10.42. The 33-year-old also failed to take wickets with the ball as well, which led to him getting dropped for the final Test at the Sydney Cricket Ground(SCG). As a result, Beau Webster who was a like-for-like replacement for Marsh and has great numbers in first-class cricket made it to Australia’s playing XI.

He has scored 5,297 runs and has taken 148 wickets in the 93 games in the domestic circuit. Though getting dropped is never a great feeling, Mitchell Marsh‘s gesture towards the debutant has been going viral on social media and the fans are in awe of him.

Despite getting axed from the playing XI, Marsh showed no hesitation and went out of his way in congratulating the Websters’ family, after he received his much cherished “baggy green” Test cap. Consequently, the cricket fraternity deemed it a true display of sportsmanship from the 2021 T20 World Champion.

Meanwhile, speaking of the Sydney Test, Australian bowlers were all over the Indian batters once again and got them all out for just 185 runs. Soon after, when Australia came into bat, tempers flared between Australian opener Sam Konstas and Usman Khawaja at the stroke of stumps on Day 1.

As a result, this led the stand-in India Skipper Jasprit Bumrah all fired up and ended up having a last laugh at Khawaja by getting him caught behind on the last ball of the day. Currently, the hosts are 9/1 at stumps on the opening day of the Sydney Test.
