Mitchell Marsh ... young all-rounder set to miss entire Twenty20 series. Source:News Limited
Mitch Marsh's hopes of playing in the Twenty20 Big Bash League appear over after the star all-rounder severely tore his hamstring in Western Australia's 14-run one-day loss to South Australia.
Marsh suffered the injury while diving to make his ground late in Western Australia's doomed run chase in the Ryobi Cup. The 21-year-old will undergo scans to determine the extent of the damage, but a best-case scenario would likely see him miss between four to six weeks.
Even that would leave his participation in Australia's domestic T20 competition highly unlikely, especially given the frantic nature of the format.
New Warriors and Perth Scorchers coach Justin Langer was disappointed to see Marsh suffer the injury, but urged the powerful right-hander to focus all of his energies on healing as quickly as possible.
"It's a huge blow for lots of reasons," Langer said of the injury to Marsh, who has endured a turbulent summer after being caught up in the Perth Scorchers' boozy night out in South Africa last month.
"We've got a Shield game and a one-dayer in Tassie next week which he won't be available for.
"Then it's unlikely he'll be available for the Scorchers. He's pushing hard to play Australian one-day and Twenty20 cricket, so it's going to be hard (to push up for selection) if he's not playing."
Langer's coaching debut was an interesting one, with the former Test opener caught somewhat by surprise when Redbacks coach Darren Berry paid him a visit early in WA's run chase.
An animated Berry went to Langer to voice his confusion over the third umpire decision review system currently used in domestic one-day cricket.
Under the current system, the third umpire can review a decision if they see a replay in time and view it as a controversial call.
However, this has created a situation where some batsmen hang around once they've been given out - or trudge off the field extremely slowly - in the hope the third umpire will see a replay in time and then decide to review the dismissal.
"Coaches, players and umpires alike are all pretty confused and frustrated by this system, which was clearly evident on several occasions tonight," Berry said after his team's third one-day win of the season.
"I'm confused. I'm confused. I'm confused."
Berry isn't the only one to express his displeasure.
Tasmania skipper George Bailey described the system as "shocking" and "embarrassing", while Queensland coach Darren Lehmann brandished the competition's rule book at a television camera during the same game after a decision was reversed on review.
