Shortly after Australia defeated hosts India by six wickets in the title clash to claim an unprecedented sixth Men\u2019s ODI World Cup title in Ahmedabad, a picture of Marsh with his feet on the trophy were shared by captains Pat Cummins on his Instagram account, which created a huge furore on social media.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cThere was obviously no disrespect meant in that photo at all. I haven\u2019t given it too much thought, I haven\u2019t seen a lot on social media even though everyone tells me it\u2019s gone off. There\u2019s nothing in that,\u201d said Marsh on SEN Radio.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Marsh came under criticism from Indian fans, especially with fast-bowler Mohammed Shami later saying he was \u201churt\u201d by his gesture in the photo. Asked if he would do it again, Marsh said, \u201cYeah probably, to be honest.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Four days after 2023 Men\u2019s ODI World Cup was played, Australia and India squared off in a five-match T20I series, with its fourth game to be held in Raipur on Friday. Marsh stated that things like scheduling a bilateral tournament shortly after a global event is played should be avoided in the future.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cYeah it was pretty outrageous for the guys that had to stay behind. It\u2019s a fine line because we\u2019ve got to respect the fact we\u2019re playing for Australia and it\u2019s a series against India which is always really big.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cBut there\u2019s also the human side of it, the boys have just won a World Cup and probably deserve to celebrate for a while and get home to their families. It\u2019s an interesting one. You\u2019d hope there\u2019s not too many of those series put on after big tournaments again.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Steve Smith, Adam Zampa, Glenn Maxwell, Marcus Stoinis, Josh Inglis and Sean Abbott have since flown home after taking part in first three T20I games, with Australia trailing 2-1 in the series and Travis Head the only member from World Cup winning team in India now. \u201cI celebrated for the six guys who stayed behind, I celebrated for them,\u201d signed off Marsh.<\/p>\r\n\r\n", "image": "https:\/\/img.cricketnmore.com\/uploads\/2023\/12\/mitchell-marsh-defends-himself-over-resting-feet-on-world-cup-trophy-says-he-would-do-it-again.webp", "alt_img": "Mitchell Marsh defends himself over resting feet on World Cup trophy, says he would do it again", "alt_title": "Mitchell Marsh defends himself over resting feet on World Cup trophy, says he would do it again", "image1": null, "video": null, "seo_title": "Mitchell Marsh Defends Himself Over Resting Feet On World Cup Trophy, Says He Would Do It Again On Cricketnmore", "seo_desc": "Mitchell Marsh Defends Himself Over Resting Feet On World Cup Trophy, Says He Would Do It Again, ODI World Cup: Australia\u2019s fast-bowling all-rounder Mitchell Marsh insisted on Friday that him resting his feet over the ODI World.", "seo_keywords": "Mitchell Marsh, World Cup, Photo Credit, ODI World Cup, Pat Cummins, SEN Radio, Mohammed Shami, Steve Smith, Adam Zampa, Glenn Maxwell, Marcus Stoinis, Josh Inglis, Sean Abbott, Travis Head", "tag": "", "tagging": "Mitchell Marsh, World Cup, Photo Credit, ODI World Cup, Pat Cummins, SEN Radio, Mohammed Shami, Steve Smith, Adam Zampa, Glenn Maxwell, Marcus Stoinis, Josh Inglis, Sean Abbott, Travis Head", "status": "1", "img_rpt": "0", "google": "1", "standout": "0", "edapps": "0", "pulse": "0", "no_index": "0", "feed": "0", "fixture": null, "slug": "mitchell-marsh-defends-himself-over-resting-feet-on-world-cup-trophy-says-he-would-do-it-again", "user_id": "0", "read_count": "0", "ians_date": null, "ians_time": null, "server_time": null, "trash": "0", "view_count": "989", "page_break": "0", "instant_articles": "1", "auto_link": "1", "created": "2023-12-01 15:22:03", "updated": "2023-12-01 15:22:03", "img_from": "Image Source: IANS", "img_source": null, "schedule_publish": null, "news_keywords": "Mitchell Marsh, World Cup, Photo Credit, ODI World Cup, Pat Cummins, SEN Radio, Mohammed Shami, Steve Smith, Adam Zampa, Glenn Maxwell, Marcus Stoinis, Josh Inglis, Sean Abbott, Travis Head", "livescore_text": null, "livescore_link": null, "btn_text": null, "resend_feed": "1", "google_feed": "1", "read_more": "0", "posted_by": "23", "jio_date": "2023-12-01 15:22:03", "scheduled": "0", "news_now": "1", "breaking_news": "1", "google_date": null, "featured": "0", "pred_match_id": null, "article_content_type": null, "link": "https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/cricket-news\/mitchell-marsh-defends-himself-over-resting-feet-on-world-cup-trophy-says-he-would-do-it-again-133235" }
