About Daniel Marsh

  • Daniel James Marsh (born 14 June 1973) is a former Australian cricketer who captained the Tasmanian Tigers.
  • The son of former Australian keeper Rod Marsh, Dan was a right-handed batsman and a handy slow left-arm orthodox bowler.
  • He played for the South Australia early on in his career and played County Cricket for Leicestershire County Cricket Club. Dan Marsh was a powerful striker of the ball and was capable of occupying the crease for long periods.
  • He led the Tasmanians to just their second ever trophy when they won the 2004-05 ING Cup.
  • He contributed a half century in the final.

Whilst Ricky Ponting was officially the Tasmanian cricket captain from 2001-02 until he announced he was standing down on 21 November 2007, this was primarily a ceremonial appointment in order to have the Australian captain as Tasmanian captain as well.
