The Sir Vivian Richards Stadium: Mitchell Marsh has declared himself ready to bowl in the Super Eight stage of the T20 World Cup 2024, providing Australia an additional option ahead of their crucial game against Bangladesh in Antigua. Meanwhile, Glenn Maxwell believes the captain is on the brink of a major batting breakthrough.

Marsh, who has been recovering from a hamstring injury sustained during the IPL, has not bowled in recent matches. However, he is now confident in his ability to contribute with the ball. "I'll be available to bowl," Marsh confirmed. "With the line-up that we've got, I don't necessarily see a need for me to bowl, but in this format, it's really important to have options, and we're blessed with plenty of those."

Australia have managed well without Marsh's bowling, thanks in part to Marcus Stoinis's significant contributions and a strategic use of spin against Scotland. Should Australia decide to include Ashton Agar as a second frontline spinner, Marsh's bowling could provide valuable seam options.
