Mitchell Marsh re-signs with Perth Scorchers for three years

Perth: Perth Scorchers star Mitchell Marsh has reaffirmed his desire to be a one-club player by signing a three-year contract with the franchise he joined in the inaugural season of the Big Bash League (BBL).

The new deal ensures Marsh will remain in orange until at least the end of BBL 17, having been on Perth’s list since the competition was founded in 2011-12.

Marsh and Sydney Sixers veteran Moises Henriques are the only players to have stayed with their original club for all 14 editions of the BBL.

The Australian T20 skipper – who has represented his country in 46 Tests, 93 ODIs and 65 T20Is – played a central role in Perth’s BBL season 3 and BBL season 11 titles.

Such was his dominance during the Covid-affected BBL 11 season, Marsh earned selection in the Team of the Tournament despite playing just eight of 16 games, all outside Western Australia. IANS
