Marcus Stoinis

Marcus Stoinis credits MS Dhoni, Faf du Plessis for longevity insights

A one format player now, 35-year-old Australia and Punjab Kings all-rounder Marcus Stoinis wants to push boundaries by playing for long and he says, a ready reckoner in how to do it has already been created by 40-plus stalwarts like Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Faf du Plessis. The cricketing world was left surprised with his decision to retire from ODIs ahead of the Champions Trophy but in a conversation with PTI, the player from Perth said he took the call after due deliberation and it was the only way he could prolong his career. With absolute clarity about his future, he now wants to put all his energies into playing T20 cricket for Australia and around the world. On top of his wish-list is featuring in the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics where cricket will be played. "Yeah, absolutely. I still am going to be available playing international cricket for Australia in the T20 format. It was just a decision to step away from one day cricket, which, look, with the one day World Cup still quite

Marsh inspires the pack; not just captain but true leader: Marcus Stoinis

Mitchell Marsh is not just a captain but a true leader, Marcus Stoinis said eulogising his teammate but added that the current Australia group is easy to lead with everyone aware of their roles in specific situations. Marsh has been tasked with leading Australia to their second T20 World Cup title. "Mitchie is not a captain but a leader. The way he gets the groups together inspires it," fellow all-rounder Stoinis said on the 'Unplayable' podcast. "He's been a leader for a longtime in this group. He has captained in the past at a younger age as well." It is not just Stoinis that has lavished praise on the all-rounder, the rest of the team also speaks highly of the 'Bison'. Marsh has had a love hate relationship with the fans, who booed him when his performance dropped leading the all-rounder to claim "most of Australia hates me". But Marsh witnessed a resurgence last year and has now become a fan favourite. He made his way back into the Test team and starred in Australia's stunnin

T20 World Cup 2024: Stoinis leads Australia to comprehensive win over Oman

Marcus Stoinis smacked a quick-fire unbeaten half-century and claimed three wickets as Australia began their T20 World Cup campaign with a comprehensive 39-run victory against Oman at the Kensington Oval on Thursday. Stoinis helped Australia recover from a top-order slide with a brutal unbeaten 67-run knock off 36 balls to help them post 164/5 in the company of David Warner (56). He then produced figures of 3-0-19-3 as the 2021 champions grabbed two points. Oman tried to take the fight to the opposition but their lack of experience showed as they could manage only 125/9 in 20 overs. Oman were pegged back when Nathan Ellis (2/28) and Mitchell Starc (2/20) struck once each inside the first three overs. Starc produced a vicious inswinger on the third ball of Oman's innings which hit Pratik Athavale (0) on the pads, but Australia were forced to take a DRS review after their appeal was declined on the field. Oman then reviewed unsuccessfully when Ellis pinned Kashyap Prajapati (7) in f

Slow pitches, low scores seems to be theme of T20 World Cup, says Stoinis

Australia all-rounder Marcus Stoinis on Thursday said low scores and slow pitches seem to be "the theme" of the ongoing T20 World Cup but he is hopeful that wickets will improve as the tournament progresses. Australia defeated Oman in their tournament-opener here by 39 runs after posting a relatively high score, by tournament standards so far, of 164/5 with Stoinis smacking a 36-ball 67 and grabbing three wickets to be the player of the match. Speaking to the media in the post-game press conference, Stoinis was asked if the low scores in the tournament, a far cry from the regular 200-plus totals that fans witnessed during last month's IPL, have shocked him. "Yeah, it wasn't a shock I think from watching the games so far, it seems like that's going to be the theme of the tournament. But it's one thing watching it from the side and then another thing to adapt yourself while you're out there. "So, it was fine. It just took some getting used to, I guess," he said. The US leg of the ..

ICC World Cup: Stoinis' fitness in spotlight, Australia sweat on playing 11

Australian captain Pat Cummins said the team management is keeping a close watch on the fitness of all-rounder Marcus Stoinis, who has picked up a hamstring injury, ahead of their World Cup match against India here on Sunday. Cummins said Stoinis would be put through his paces in the next few hours before taking a final call on the Western Australian cricketer. "We'll announce a team tomorrow at the toss. Stoinis, yeah, still touch and go. He's going to have a run out soon, but probably up against it. He's got to jump through a few hoops. Yeah, we'll see," said Cummins on Saturday during his pre-match press meet. However, Cummins was not really perturbed because his side has a wonderful array of all-rounders who can step in for Stoinis. "I think in one-day cricket more than any other formats you need all-rounders -- you've got to try and find 50 overs. "So, we feel really blessed to have people like Cam (Cameron) Green, Mitch Marsh, Glenn Maxwell in the side. They're like gold. It
