I saw this earlier in the week and wondered if he would make it.
Incredible character.
I think the 70s was the decade of the greatest keepers, and Marsh was one of them. Incredible capabilities for someone so seemingly unathletic.
c Marsh b Lillee
I wonder how many batsman had that in their scorecard.
He was also responsible, IIRC, for the development of a lot of young English players in Adelaide.
RIP big man, I hope you collected your winnings in Leeds that Tuesday

Along with David Boon, I believe he also helped out Brewers all over the World.
Seriously, a great Cricketer.

Staring at the rude boys
Tackled a streaker in a ODI in 1981. Richie Benaud commented "That's the first catch Marsh has taken today"

Sad news. Grew up watching him play, a very good cricketer indeed from a classic era.
