Summary
- Mitch Marsh has been released back to play for Australia A with Marcus Stoinis fit to see out the World Cup after overcoming a side strain.
- Marsh had only last week been called into Australia’s World Cup camp as cover, with fears Stoinis wouldn’t be fit to bowl again and would need to be withdrawn.
- Stoinis was injured in last Sunday’s loss to India, with Australia having been forced to play without a bowling allrounder since.
- But with Nathan Lyon the only man not to play a game, Langer predicted Australia could well opt with two spinners the further in the competition gets.
- Langer meanwhile was coy on what affect Stoinis’ likely return could having on the batting line up, not being drawn into who could find their way out of the side.
