Marsh retired from the tournament due to a back injury that has worsened over time and affected his workload in the Border-Gavaskar trophy, where the final test was lost. It is currently experiencing rehabilitation.

Both pacemakers will need a prolonged rehabilitation period before receiving authorization to compete. His participation in India Premier League (IPL) is also in doubt.
