Why Is Mitchell Marsh Not in LSG Playing XI Against Gujarat Titans in IPL 2025?
In a big setback for the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), the Rishabh Pant-led side will be without the services of star Australian all-rounder Mitchell Marsh for their match against the Gujarat Titans (GT) in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL 2025).
The news was confirmed by Pant during the coin toss. The wicketkeeper-batter revealed that Marsh is missing out due to personal reasons since his daughter is unwell. In his absence, LSG have handed a debut to Delhi batter Himmat Singh.
Confirming the development, Pant said, “Instead of Mitchell Marsh, Himmat Singh comes in. His daughter is not well.”
