I would like to play cricket in the winter, but the World Cup is my next major objective. Ashton Agar

Western Australia were poised to successfully defend their Marsh Cup title after left-arm spinner Ashton Agar collected five wickets in the last match against South Australia. Although he was unable to dismiss his brother Wes Agar, he was able to dismiss Spencer Johnson to win the 181-run victory for Western Australia in front of a crowd of 2,700 people. Agar demonstrated why he is Australia’s second-choice white-ball spinner behind Adam Zampa after South Australia (SA) got off to a quick start chasing a massive total of 388; he looms as a vital part in Australia’s World Cup preparations for later in the year. With his accuracy, he frustrated the South African hitters and concluded with 5 for 64, his best Marsh Cup performance ever.

After returning from Australia’s Test trip without being selected, it was a much-needed confidence boost for Agar. Agar was missed for selection after suffering in India and was replaced by Murphy and Kuhnemann, who had travelled to India as Australia’s second spinner behind Nathan Lyon, after Agar had struggled in India. Ashton Agar, an Australian spinner, discusses the Marsh Cup Final and his departure from India.

“I believed I was not bowling as well as I should have been. Now that the direction is very apparent, all I need to do is work on it and improve “ESPN cricinfo quotes Agar after the Marsh Cup final as he reflects on his departure from India.
“I harbor no ill will or negative emotions. The Australian camp has been in frequent contact with me and has provided me with ample support, so everything is proceeding smoothly.”

“Because I’ve been a professional cricketer for ten years, I’ve become considerably more robust. It is a difficult game played in a hostile setting, as it should be because it is the apex of the sport “he continued.

Agar will return to India for the ODI series, as he has announced.

“I’ve submitted my application for The Hundred… I want to play cricket during the winter. But the next major objective is the World Cup “concluded he.
