Delhi Capitals (DC) have suffered a big blow as their star all-rounder Mitchell Marsh has returned to Australia mid-tournament. Cricket Australia called him back to assess the extent of the injury and begin his recovery process.
Marsh has missed the last two games for the Delhi Capitals due to a hamstring injury and the assistant coach Pravin Amre hinted that the all-rounder will be out of action for a week.
However, according to a report by ESPNCricinfo, Marsh has returned to Australia to receive treatment for a partial tear in his right hamstring.
Amre had opened up on Marsh’s injury after DC’s loss to Mumbai Indians in the high-scoring contest at the Wankhede Stadium. He said that the all-rounder has gone for a scan and the report will come in a week.
“A few of our players are injured, and the worrying sign is Mitch Marsh. He has gone for a scan and the physios will give us a report in a week’s time. Then we will come to know what the exact situation is. Whether he can [play the entire season] or not depends on the reports,” Amre said after DC lost to MI on April 7.
Meanwhile, Delhi Capitals regained their winning form, triumphing over Lucknow Super Giants in their 6th match at Ekana Cricket Stadium. With this win, they have now climbed up to the ninth spot of the points table.
