Marsh's hamstring concerns
“He has gone for a scan and the physios will give us a report in a week's time,” Amre said. “Then we will know what the exact situation is. Whether he (can play the whole season) or not depends on the reports.”
Cricket Australia's medical staff will be kept in the loop but there is no indication yet whether they will be withdrawn from the IPL to rest for the World Cup. Marsh has been handled very carefully by CA in the past 12 months since his return as a three-format player, having been named the Allan Border Medalist as Australia's best performer across all formats in the past year.
His form before the injury was a concern for the Capitals with talk of their place in jeopardy after scores of 20, 23, 18 and 0. But his performances don't concern the Australian selectors as he is starting fast without progressing yet. with that. He is playing a style of cricket that the Australian hierarchy wants him to play in the Powerplay in the World Cup.
Maxwell and Green are battling it out in Royal Challengers Bangalore
While Maxwell's form has not concerned the Australian selectors, Green's form is not helping his bid to make the T20 World Cup squad. He was already on the brink of the final 15 of the tournament but he could not make a statement in his new role for RCB. Green, who batted at No. 3 in an excellent debut season for Mumbai Indians last year and had some brief T20I success as an opener, has struggled to find a place at No. 5 with scores of just 9 and 5. last week He lost his off-stump to Mayank Yadav's pace and then had no impact at the death against Rajasthan, unable to find a boundary in the six balls he faced.
His best innings so far in the tournament was against Kolkata Knight Riders at no. He scored 33 runs in 21 overs in 3 overs. In his three innings no. In 5 innings he has scored less than 100 runs off 37 balls. Has struggled to make an impact with the ball as well. He took two wickets in the first match of the tournament but remained wicketless thereafter. Green did not play any T20 cricket at any level between last year's IPL and this match, as Australia's selectors focused on red-ball cricket. That lack of exposure could play against RCB unless they find some form when the selectors sit down to pick the final World Cup 15 later this month.
Stoinis and David are invigorating
Stoinis' form has particularly impressed the Australian selectors. As LSG lost momentum outside the powerplay they were no. Promoted to 4 and chose his moments to attack to deliver the winning score to defend on a surface that was slow throughout. He played a key role in LSG's previous win against RCB scoring 24 off 15 overs. He took one wicket in that match but strangely bowled just one over in the tournament. He was subbed out after scoring a half-century against the Titans.
