Former Australia captain Ian Chappell has slammed Shaun Marsh's topsy-turvy batting statistic in Test format by comparing it with former fast bowler Glenn McGrath's poor batting records.
The 32-year-old's attempt to resurrect his international career dealt a severe blow when he ran himself out for two on day two of the day-night Test against New Zealand at the Adelaide Oval on Saturday by Brendon McCullum.
