Key Points

Australia all-rounder Mitchell Marsh has flown back home in the middle of the World Cup due to personal reasons..

His absence comes as a major setback for Australia who will already miss the services of Glenn Maxwell for their next match against England in Ahmedabad on Saturday..

Although Maxwell will sit out Saturday's game against England at the world's biggest cricket stadium in Ahmedabad, he is expected to return for the later stages of the tournament..

"In transporting him back from the clubhouse to the team bus, Glenn came off the back of a cart and has suffered a small concussion, so he will go into concussion protocols for the next period of time and will, unfortunately, miss the England game," coach Andrew McDonald said..

Despite the injury to Maxwell and the absence of Marsh, Australia are favourites to beat an out-of-form England, a hapless Bangladesh and a spirited Afghanistan...
