Australian all-rounder Mitchell Marsh has unfortunately not recovered from his back injury in time for next month’s Champions Trophy. His lower back pain has not sufficiently responded to rehabilitation, putting him in a race against time for the 2025 Indian Premier League season as well. On that note, let us check out 3 players who can replace Mitchell Marsh in LSG’s IPL 2025 squad if the Australian all-rounder gets ruled out of the next edition of the IPL.
Players who can replace Mitchell Marsh in IPL 2025
Kyle Mayers
In IPL, Kyle Mayers has already represented the LSG. The West Indies all-rounder can be the perfect replacement for Marsh. Mayers is a powerful striker and can bowl medium pace, just like Marsh. Kyle Mayers has scored 379 runs in 13 matches, with a highest score of 73 and an average of 29.15. He has a strike rate of 144.11, hitting 4 fifties but no centuries. With the ball, he has bowled 42 balls, conceding 59 runs without taking any wickets. His economy rate is 8.43.
Sikandar Raza
Much to the surprise of everyone, Zimbabwe skipper Sikandar Raza went unsold in the IPL 2025 auction. The all-rounder can replace Marsh in LSG’s IPL 2025 squad. Just like Marsh, Sikandar Raza holds the ability to clear the ropes with ease. Apart from his batting, Raza is more than handy with the ball.
Dewald Brevis
Dewald Brevis did not receive a single bid in the auction and went unsold. Dewald Brevis has registered himself for the IPL 2025 mega auction at the base price of Rs 75 lakh. Recently, Brevis has been in phenomenal form in the ongoing SA20 league. Even though Brevis cannot contribute with the ball, the South African batter can win the games single-handedly for LSG on his given day.
