Timeline

1958

Geoffrey Robert Marsh (born 31 December 1958) is an Australian former cricketer, coach and selector.

He played 50 Test matches and 117 One Day Internationals for Australia as an opening batsman.

1977

Marsh was a steady, solid right-handed opening batsman and capable fielder, making his first-class debut for Western Australia as a nineteen-year-old in the 1977–1978 Sheffield Shield season.

1978

In 1978 he played five games of Australian rules football for South Fremantle in the West Australian National Football League before concentrating only on cricket.

Marsh established himself as a solid competitor on the domestic front and was on the fringes of the national team for a number of years before winning selection in the Australian Test team.

1985

He made his debut in December 1985 against India and took part of the tours of New Zealand and India the following year.

However, his domestic debut was less than impressive, scoring a golden pair for Western Australia on debut at Sydney Cricket Ground, which was recorded in hand-written form on a storing cabinet inside the away team's dressing room as a symbolic "domestic honours board".

He soon made the opening position his own (despite his mediocre batting average of 33.18 ), batting alongside the likes of Mark Taylor and David Boon, and became an integral part of the Australian One Day International team.

He along with David Boon became the first pair of openers to notch hundreds in a same ODI innings for the team

Test Debut: vs India, Adelaide, 1985–1986

ODI Debut: vs New Zealand, Sydney, 1985–1986

1987

Marsh was a part of the Australian team that won their first world title during the 1987 Cricket World Cup.

He is best remembered for his part in the Australian team that won the 1987 World Cup in India, including an unbeaten 126 against New Zealand in Chandigarh, while he also captained his country in four matches.

Over his career Marsh was a solid performer in One Day International cricket, with a batting average of nearly 40 but had a very low strike rate compared to more recent opening batsman.

1991

Last Test: vs India, Adelaide, 1991–1992

Last ODI: vs Pakistan, Perth, 1991–1992

Marsh scored 11,760 runs at 39.46, with 33 centuries.

1992

Marsh played international cricket over a seven-year period, ending in 1992.

1994

Marsh retired from playing cricket in 1994 before taking up coaching.

1996

In July 1996 he was chosen as coach of the Australian national Test and One Day International teams, playing a vital part in continuing his country's positions as the top cricketing nation of the time.

As the coach of Australia he was in charge when Australia won the 1999 Cricket World Cup in England.

He was the coach of the Australian team that won the 1999 World Cup in England, guiding the team to seven consecutive victories to help them win the tournament.

2001

He later coached Zimbabwe (2001–2004) and Sri Lanka (2011–12).

He left the Australian coaching job and soon became a selector for the Australian Cricket Board (now Cricket Australia), although he left this position in 2001 to become coach of the Zimbabwean national teams.

2004

Marsh continued in this position until 2004 when his contract expired; many considered this decision was made due to the political circumstances of Zimbabwe's government under Robert Mugabe, although he has never commented publicly on the matter.
