Shaun Marsh was run out in an unlikely manner in the fifth One-Day International (ODI) between India and Australia at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG). Marsh, getting a chance to play after Glenn Maxwell was injured in the fourth ODI, had just about got set before having to walk off. Maxwell had been hit on his knee by an Ishant Sharma delivery earlier in the fourth ODI at Canberra, and missed out on the fifth ODI at the SCG. This allowed the older Marsh brother to return to the side after having previously played in the absence of David Warner, who was on paternity leave. Marsh was the fourth Australian batsman to be dismissed, and was replaced in the middle by his younger brother. Live Cricket Scorecard: India vs Australia 2015-16, 5th ODI at Sydney
The run out occurred in Gurkeerat Singh’s over. The off-spineer was bowling to two left-handers, and the batsman hit the ball to the deep aand took off for a run. The fielder Umesh Yadav got in an excellent throw, but Gurkeerat was unable to collect the ball cleanly. However, the ball bounced out of his hand and onto his legs before ricocheting back onto the stumps. Marsh was run out for 7 runs off 14 balls, and India got their fourth Australian wicket for 117. Warner was then joined by the other Marsh, Mitchell. Matthew Wade, James Faulkner, and John Hastings have are all more than efficient with the bat.
