Mitchell Marsh Withdraws from Champions Trophy Due to Back Injury

The Australian all-rounder will undergo extended rehabilitation, leaving his IPL participation uncertain.

Mitchell Marsh has been ruled out of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 due to persistent lower back pain that has not responded to rehabilitation.
Cricket Australia stated Marsh requires an extended rehabilitation period to address ongoing back issues and ensure his long-term fitness.
The 32-year-old struggled with form and fitness during the recent Test series against India, leading to his exclusion from the final match.
Australia's selectors have not yet announced a replacement for Marsh, with the tournament beginning on February 19 in Pakistan and the UAE.
Marsh's participation in the 2025 Indian Premier League, where he was signed by the Lucknow Super Giants, is also in doubt due to his injury.
