Mitchell Marsh has been drafted in as cover for the injured Marcus Stoinis, who is sidelined with a side strain he endured in Australia’s match against India, which has ruled him out of the upcoming clash against Pakistan.
Stoinis has played all three of Australia’s games so far and made important contributions with the ball, but his availability for the rest of the campaign is in doubt.
Marsh was due to fly over to England on Friday regardless, as part of the Australia A side who are touring England to take on various counties across the country in both List A and first-class matches.
