"I'd like to have Mitch Marsh back in there at number three (in the batting order)," Gilchrist said on SEN's Whateley on Wednesday."He (Marsh) found his way there into some really exciting results against the West Indies and Bangladesh (this year) and laid the foundation on what were horror tours (for Australia)," added Gilchrist. Australia lost both the T20I series, against the West Indies and Bangladesh, in the run-up to the T20 World Cup, though Mitch Marsh's batting stood out."I'd be putting him (Marsh) straight back in the side, if there's the feeling you have to be flexible with Steve Smith and Glenn Maxwell then that's fine, but give Mitch (Marsh) the job so he can use that power that he's got."Prior to the England game, Marcus Stoinis was closing out games well but the top order needs to do the damage. Someone in the top three needs to get between 50 and 80 to lay the foundations. I'd put Mitch Marsh into the team and play it from there," added Gilchrist.Australia are in a must-win situation as they need to beat both Bangladesh and then West Indies if they want to finish in the top-two and qualify for the semifinals.
