Australia all-rounder Mitchell Marsh had a memorable Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 campaign with Delhi Capitals even as the franchise failed to make the play-offs. Marsh scored 251 runs in 8 matches with two half-centuries and was one of DC’s better players this season. In the recent season, Marsh has struggled with injuries whenever he has played in the IPL, and this year too, he came into the tournament with an injury and finally after playing a match, he contracted COVID-19.
However, the 30-year-old was able to make a strong comeback after his recovery and played well with both bat and ball.
Speaking to cricket.com.au, Marsh revealed how, given his injury history, a rocky start to the season made him feel he was “cursed” in India.
“After my first few weeks there I felt cursed in India,” Marsh said.
“I went through my initial injury – which was very minor – but then to play a game and get COVID, it was a bit shaky start but once I got going it was nice to have some consistent performances on the board.” He said before adding “I absolutely loved my time there.”
He also had shining words for the former Australia captain and their head coach at Delhi Capitals, Ricky Ponting,
“Everyone talks a lot about him and what he’s accomplished in the game, but I got a real sense of how much he cares for his players – I think he might have been a captain and a team leader.” As it was.” Told.

Marsh said, “The way he makes you feel – he made me feel like I’m a really important player for Delhi. You gain confidence from it when a leader instills that kind of trust in you, Marsh said.
