Australian captain Mitchell Marsh had a forgettable outing with the bat, as England's young fast bowler Brydon Carse dismissed him cheaply in the ongoing third ODI between the two sides at Riverside Ground in Chester-Le-Street. 

In Travis Head's absence, Marsh came out to open the innings alongside Matthew Short. However, despite getting a steady start to his innings, the explosive right-handed batter couldn't convert it into a significant score, with Carse dismissing him with a beauty. 

Mitchell Marsh Vs Brydon Carse: Here's What Happened

The incident occurred during the eleventh over of Australia's innings when England needed someone to break the second-wicket stand between Marsh and Steve Smith. Brydon Carse emerged as their wrecker-in-chief with the ball, dismissing Marsh with a beauty. 

The pacer didn't have a great start to the over, as Marsh dispatched his fourth delivery into the stands for a gigantic six. But his comeback was remarkable, with his magical ball getting the better of the Australian captain at a crucial juncture of the match. 

From over the wicket, Brydon Carse bowled a full-length delivery, luring Marsh for a drive on the up. As the Aussie skipper tried to play it down the ground, the ball took the outside edge of his bat, with Jamie Smith taking a simple catch behind the stumps. 

His dismissal was a sigh of relief for the Englishmen, as he could've been pivotal for Australia's success in this high-voltage affair.

Mitchell Marsh's dismissal is credited to Carse, who made him fall into his trap with a classic old-school setup. After coming into the attack, Carse strategically targeted Marsh's body despite being aware of his exceptional stroke play against the short ball. 

Initially, he took a gamble by banging it short and pushing Marsh onto the back foot. But after being hit for a six, Carse instantly changed his length and surprised Marsh with a full-length delivery. 

The Australian captain was already on the back foot, so he was a tad late to react to the pitched-up delivery. By then, the ball had nipped away from him, taking the outside edge of his bat. Thus, Carse outsmarted the Aussie batter, getting his prized wicket in the must-win game.
