Mitchell Marsh is excited to take on Pakistan in the Perth West Test. Australia’s Mitchell Marsh, an all-rounder, stated his enthusiasm about playing in the next West Test match in Perth against Pakistan, which starts on December 14.
Marsh expressed his excitement to play on Perth Stadium’s fast and bouncy pitch where he has never played a Test match during a media conference in Perth, Australia.
“In the entire world, this is the best wicket.” I haven’t played a Test match in Perth yet, but I would be thrilled to play in the West Test if I was picked,” said Marsh.
“As a player, you want a pitch that is fast and bouncy because it gives both the batter and the bowler an equal chance to contest,” he continued.
