Australian head coach Andrew McDonald has suggested that Mitchell Marsh may soon be appointed as captain for the upcoming T20 World Cup, set to take place in the West Indies and USA in June. Marsh, who led the Australian team to a 3-0 victory over New Zealand in a recent T20I series, has garnered confidence from both team management and selectors for his leadership qualities.

He was awarded the Player of the Match for his outstanding performance, scoring an unbeaten 77 runs off 50 balls to guide his team to victory with eight wickets in hand, chasing a target of 173 runs in the 19th over
