Top 7 cricketers who were coached by their fathers to become greats
Let us take a look at seven father-son duos where cricketer fathers helped train and nurture cricketing talent of their young sons.
2. Geoff Marsh—Mitchell Marsh & Shaun Marsh
Former Australian opener Geoff Marsh has had a significant influence on the careers of his sons, Shaun Marsh and Mitchell Marsh, both of whom went on to represent Australia across all three formats. Shaun became a top-order batter and scored consistently for Australia, and retired as one of the key figures in the dominant Australian team that asserted dominance over the years.
On the other hand, his younger brother Mitchell, an explosive all-rounder, showcased his abilities with both bat and ball, playing key roles in several major tournaments. Mitchell has also led the Aussies in T20s, and has the ability to switch to different roles as per the changing dynamics of the game. Geoff’s experience and mentorship played a crucial role in guiding them through the challenges of international cricket.
