New Delhi: Injured all-rounder
Mitchell Marsh will link up with his IPL franchise Delhi Capitals and continue
his recovery in India after being ruled out of Australia's remaining limited
overs series against Pakistan.
The 30-year-old, who was
bought for Rs 6.5 crore by the Capitals in the IPL auction last month, had
injured his hip flexor during a high-intensity fielding drill on Sunday.
He had subsequently missed the
first ODI, which Australia won by 88 runs in Lahore on Tuesday.
Marsh will now manage his
recovery under the guidance of physiotherapist Patrick Farhart, who has been
with the Capitals since the 2020 IPL season.
"Marsh will travel to
India to link with the Delhi Capitals squad where former Australian and current
New South Wales physiotherapist Pat Farhart will manage his recovery following
an isolation period," Cricket Australia said in a statement on Wednesday.
"Being able to focus on
my recovery without the travel and isolation break is the best approach. I am
disappointed to miss the Pakistan series but look forward to re-joining the
Australian squad for our next tour," Marsh said.
Marsh was originally going to miss the Capitals' first three games as he was a part of the Australian limited overs team for the series against Australia. (PTI)
