Western Australia veteran calls time after 22 years of Shield cricket and 38 Tests for Australia.

Marsh finished with 2265 Test runs at an average of 34.31, playing his last Test in January 2019 against India after providing a veteran presence following the sandpaper scandal. His Test pinnacle was arguably during the 2017-18 Ashes series, where he struck centuries in Adelaide and Sydney. It remains the second-highest partnership in Australia's Test history. "From a young age all I wanted to do was be like him and he's had a massive impact on my career." It was the last of his six centuries, but he played a further 10 Tests over the next two years. He loomed as Ricky Ponting's natural successor at No. His 122 matches is the second-most in WA's history behind former captain Tom Moody. Over the last 24 hours it hit home that my time is done. "This year in particular has been really hard," Marsh told reporters. I walked out and thought, 'that's not me'.

Australian batter Shaun Marsh retires from first-class cricket (The Hindu)

Marsh ended with 2265 Test runs to his name at an average of 34.31, playing his last Test in January 2019 against India.

Long regarded as a Test star, Marsh had an impressive debut in 2011 with a century against Sri Lanka in Pallekele after scoring his first first-class century at the age of 19 against a potent New South Wales team that included Steve and Mark Waugh. Marsh's highest Test score of 182 was made against West Indies in Hobart in 2015. He made his ODI debut for Australia several months later against West Indies where his 81 from 97 balls earned him player of the match honours, but it would be a further four years before he earned a Test call-up. "That's where I found the love of the game as a young kid when I was watching dad play. Marsh made his first-class debut for Western Australia in 2001 when he was 17 years old. It wasn't the way I planned it after winning the Shield final last year.

Despite not having the chance to add another Shield title to his resume, Marsh ends his state career as one of the greatest ever players to feature for WA.
