Beyond the numbers
Consistent ODI performer across 96 matches
Marsh's strongest format by primary competition is One-Day International cricket, where he averages 39.82 with the bat across 96 matches. His 57 ODI wickets at an economy of 5.50 reinforce his value as a genuine all-round option in the 50-over game.
10,853 career runs at a strike rate of 98.27
Across 360 matches and five competitions, Marsh has accumulated 10,853 runs from 11,044 balls faced. His career batting average of 33.92 sits alongside 187 wickets, making him one of the more productive all-rounders in the current game.
Two T20I fifties in back-to-back February 2026 games
Marsh struck 64 not out from 33 balls against Oman on 20 February 2026 and 54 from 27 balls against Sri Lanka four days earlier, both at Pallekele. Those efforts bookended a difficult patch against Pakistan and show the range in his short-format output.
Western Australia Cricket Association Ground his best batting venue
In 20 matches at the WACA, Marsh averages 45.27 with the bat at a strike rate of 101.80. That combination of average and scoring rate at his home ground is the strongest single-venue profile in his career numbers.
Strongest head-to-head record against England
Against England across 38 matches, Marsh has taken 38 wickets at an economy of 4.38 whilst averaging 38.85 with the bat. The bowling figures in particular stand out, with that economy rate well below his career mark of 5.17.
