Genuinely can’t believe it. AB medalists Mitch Marsh.
Definitely deserved it after a great year not sure anyone would ever have predicted this over the various times Mitch has played for Australia

Wow Grand Uncle Horace ! Who would have thought he'd be the best male cricketer in Australia?
Should have been Australian of the year as well.

Shake down the thunder
Lol @ Mere The Nepo Marsh.
Great bloke - after his Ashes century made comments to the effect the Green must be retained and he is ok being dropped when Green come back in. Nup and here we are with him a well deserved recipient of the gong
Look, I like Mitch Marsh, never jumped on the bashing bandwagon. But that's gotta be some kind of a joke right?
Do you even know how the votes are tallied?
He won by 79 votes.
It's not like he just fell over the line.

Congrats to Mitch Marsh for winning the AB Medal. I was a bit critical of his performance or two during the season but overall in the last 12-18 months , its been his world and we are just living in it. He seems to be building that Marsh dynasty from his father and brother.
I also think this win is recognition for the people of WA as I dont think many West Australians would have a bad word about him as a person and cricketer.
Respect.

Well personally I think the voting system is flawed. Good on him, he certainly had a good year. I just don't think he was the best in the grand scheme of things.Do you even know how the votes are tallied?

good on marsh for winning.
this awards night is now very low key and many weren't even in attendance.
flawed medal to be honest though.
marsh did miss 7 tests during 2023 and played well when he got an opportunity.
it wasn't that he was dominant, it was more a case of no one really was and many players get rested/rotated for odi's/T20.
to be a real chance you need to be playing in at least 2 formats.

Sleight of Hand
A World Cup can throw up an unexpected winner. David Warner for example, who accumulated heaps of votes during the 2019 edition and did very little in five Ashes tests.

Of course it is.
He's averaging over 50 since coming back into Tests, was instrumental in our ODI WC win and also is one of our top tier T20I cricketers. In what way is this surprising? Playing all 3 formats is a huge benefit, doubt he wins it without the Test resurgence.

try as they might, these awards will never reach the same acclaim as the Brownlow or Dally M.

Voting Period
Tests - 6 Matches - 594 runs (2 not outs) at 66 with 1x 100 and 5x 50's and 5 wickets
ODI's - 20 Matches - 848 runs (2 not outs) at 47.66 with 2x 100's and 5x 50's and 2 wickets
T20's - 3 Matches - 186 runs (2 not outs) at 186.00 with 0x 100's and 2x 50's
Its not that impressive for a Allan Border Medal winner but it was a bad year for everyone else in the side stats wise.
