Marcus Harris will captain Victoria in tomorrow’s day/night Marsh Cup clash against Queensland at the MCG.
Victoria defeated Queensland in the Sheffield Shield by 164 runs yesterday, with Harris being named Player of the Match for his first innings hundred.
Harris was named captain for the remaining two matches of the Marsh One-Day Cup, while Will Sutherland will captain the Sheffield Shield side in Peter Handscomb’s absence.
Cricket Victoria’s Head of Male Cricket, David Hussey said it was important to take the momentum into the Marsh Cup.
“Winning Sheffield Shield matches is never easy, but to do so after being sent in at the MCG was even more rewarding and builds a lot of confidence into our young group,” Hussey said.
“Marcus is a new captain and the group will rally around him for this match, we’re looking forward to the challenge that one-day cricket presents.”
