Mitchell Marsh Goes Big With The Bat In Shield Clash

Western Australian captain Mitchell Marsh has scored some timely runs in today's Sheffield Shield fixture against Queensland. 

Marsh came in at No.4 for Western Australia and went on to craft a well made 141 from 209 balls. 

He was dismissed caught down the leg-side by wicket keeper Jimmy Pierson off the bowling of paceman Luke Feldman. 

The all-rounder's century has held the Warriors in good stead as they are cruising at 6-347 late on day one. 

Will Bosisto and D'Arcy Short were also in the runs posting half-centuries. 

Marsh is not the only baggy green representative to dominate Shield cricket today as Glenn Maxwell smashed an unbeaten double-century.
