  • Australian legend Ricky Ponting believes that the selectors should take a gamble and include a 23-year-old uncapped Big Bash League (BBL) star in the ICC Champions Trophy squad to replace injured all-rounder Mitchell Marsh.

The article from MSN discusses former Australian cricket captain Ricky Ponting's suggestion that young Big Bash League (BBL) star Jake Fraser-McGurk could be a potential replacement for Mitchell Marsh in the upcoming Champions Trophy. Ponting highlighted Fraser-McGurk's impressive performances in the BBL, where he has shown significant promise with his aggressive batting style. Marsh, who has been a key all-rounder for Australia, might miss the tournament due to injury concerns or workload management, prompting the need for a capable substitute. Ponting praised Fraser-McGurk's ability to handle pressure and his potential to step up in international cricket, indicating that the young player's inclusion could provide the team with the necessary firepower in Marsh's absence.
