Heres what CricBuzz says about him.
He became a bit of a T20 agent at a very young age. He was drafted into the Pune Warriors squad in 2011 and he was with them until 2013. He also played for the Nagenahira Nagas in the Sri Lanka Premier League. Back home in Australia, he has been a regular member of the side for Perth Scorchers in the Big Bash League since its inception in 2011.
On the back of some impressive performances, the Australian selectors named Marsh in the squad for the Zimbabwe tri-series and he straightaway grabbed eyeballs in the first match of the tournament, with a breezy 89. With Shane Watson being injured, Marsh made his Test debut against Pakistan during Australia's tour to the UAE in October 2014 and he notched up a fine 87 in the Test played in Abu Dhabi. He also did well with the bat in the subsequent ODI series against South Africa and played the first two Test matches of the 2014-15 Border-Gavaskar Trophy, before walking off the field due to a hamstring injury on Day 1 of the second Test in Brisbane. He took no further part in the series, but the selectors picked him in the 2015 World Cup squad as he was expected to be back to full fitness.
Marsh didn't feature much in the tournament which Australia ended up winning. His only highlight was a 5-wicket haul against England. However, with a few retirements after the showpiece event, he got his opportunities and started performing well. He was able to weigh in with the bat in ODIs while his bowling was always handy. Despite having the tag of an all-rounder, it was obvious that Marsh was a better batter than a bowler. The year 2016 was memorable for him as he notched up his maiden ODI century in the home summer against India.
Marsh spent a lot of time on the bench, mostly due to injury rather than a lack of form. He found himself in and out of the Test setup and never really cemented his spot in the side. His maiden and career-best Test hundred came in 2017 in an Ashes game against Australia at Perth. The 2018-19 season saw Marsh being awarded a national contract but he didn’t feature in either of Australia’s sides on a regular basis. He was continually plagued by injuries, some of which he only had himself to blame for, like the time he broke his hand in 2019 after punching a wall following a dismissal in a Sheffield Shield game.
Perhaps his career defining knock came in the final of 2021 World T20. Marsh scored an unbeaten 50-ball 77 to help his side chase down 173 against trans-Tasman rivals New Zealand. In an innings that earned him the Player of the Match award, Marsh struck six boundaries and four maximums.
Finally free of injuries, Marsh had a massive resurgence as an international cricketer and announced his return with a resounding Ashes century in the 2023 series in England. Coming in to replace an injured Cameron Green in the 3rd Test, Marsh found himself in the middle with Australia crippled at 85/4. In what was his first Test match since 2019, Marsh held no inhibitions and played his shots with freedom. His run-a-ball 118 pushed Australia to a fighting total and although Australia ended up losing that Test, Marsh demonstrated his maturity and potential.
Marsh’s return to limited-overs cricket in his new-avatar, an opening batter, seemed to do wonders as he found some great form in both ODIs and T20Is. With some senior players being rested, Marsh was named Australia’s captain for a T20I series in South Africa and he had a successful series as both captain and batter with Australia winning the series 3-0 and him ending up as the leading run-scorer with 186 runs.
After representing the Deccan Chargers in 2010, Marsh went on to represent another now-defunct team, Pune Warriors India, for three years. In 2016, he was bought by the Rising Pune Supergiants and played just 3 games for them. Marsh returned to the IPL after a three-year absence in 2020 after being bought by the Sunrisers Hyderabad but his campaign ended after just one game with him rolling his ankle. After nearly a year touring around in biosecure conditions induced by Covid-19, Marsh opted out of the 2021 edition due to bubble-fatigue. In 2022, Marsh was bought by the Delhi Capitals for INR 6.5 crore.

Heres what ESPNcricinfo says about him.
Mitchell Marsh, one of the most well-known surnames in Australian cricket, can bowl 140kph, and is a hard-hitting middle-order bat. He has been an alluring prospect for Australia but has struggled to cement his place at international level despite some outstanding performances on the big stage.
Marsh was earmarked for high honours, alongside his brother Shaun, ever since he captained Australia Under-19s to victory in the 2010 World Cup in New Zealand. He played state cricket at just 17, and made his T20I debut at 19 in 2011. He was also a promising junior Australian Rules footballer, and hails from a prolific sporting family - his father is Geoff Marsh, the Australia opener, and later coach and selector; his sister, Melissa, was a professional basketballer.
In 2018, Marsh was appointed Australia Test vice-captain in the wake of the ball-tampering scandal, but he was then dropped from all formats and lost his national contract due to a string of failures, at Test level in particular. In 2020 he returned to the T20I fold and the following year, starred on two tours of West Indies and Bangladesh and produced a stunning 77 not out off 50 balls in the T20 World Cup final, helping Australia to their maiden title.
Marsh made it to the Test side over Shane Watson on the 2015 Ashes tour and was given time to settle into the No. 6 role, although his bowling was arguably the stronger feature of his game at the time. That had not been the case in his debut Test series, against Pakistan in the UAE the previous year, when he scored 87 and 47 in his second Test. He never quite settled until a big century at the WACA in the third Test of the 2017-18 Ashes. He followed that with another, in Sydney - brought up amid emotional scenes with his brother at the crease - and then made a pivotal match-winning 96 in a Test win in Durban before Australian cricket plunged into crisis.
It was the start of a period of decline for Marsh too. He only played one Test during the 2018-19 home summer, failing twice with the bat against India at the MCG. He returned as part of the Ashes squad in 2019, at The Oval, where he took his maiden five-wicket haul. Later that year, he broke his hand thumping the dressing-room wall at the WACA following a dismissal in the Sheffield Shield, disrupting his career again.
He stormed back into Test contention in the 2023 Ashes after four years out of the side, replacing injured allrounder Cameron Green and producing a boundary-studded 118 at Headingley, were it not for which, Australia might have lost more emphatically than they did. In the Old Trafford Test that followed, he made a fifty and held out with a teeth-gritted 31 made over two and a half hours on the final day to secure the series as England threatened to blow Australia's house down.
In the BBL, Marsh has turned out most often for powerhouse side Perth Scorchers, winning three titles with them.
