Pat Cummins explains Mitchell Marsh's snub for Sydney's New Year Test vs India

Australia captain Pat Cummins revealed that the decision to drop Mitchell Marsh out of the playing XI for the New Year's Test in Sydney was purely based on his form in the ongoing series, "Mitchy (Mitchell Marsh), obviously hasn't quite got the runs, or perhaps the wickets that he would have liked this series," Cummins said during the pre-SCG Test press conference. "So we felt like it was time for a freshen and up, and Beau's been with the squad. He's been great. So it's a shame for Mitchy, because we know how much he brings to the team, but feel like now it's a good week for Beau to get a chance."
