We have witnessed a lot of father-son duos doing well in the game of cricket. At the 2023 ODI World Cup, as well, we might come across a few instances. In fact, there are a few cases of former ODI World Cup Head Coaches whose sons might be in action later this year. On that note, here, we take a look at the list of two former Head Coaches at ODI WC whose sons might play in the 2023 ODI WC.
1) Mitchell Marsh (Son of Geoff Marsh)
Mitchell Marsh happens to be one of the best batters for Australia right now. Due to injury issues, he is not bowling much. However, he is making up for it with his performances at the top of the order. He has already played in a few World Cups and will form a vital component of the Aussie setup for the ODI WC in India.
Geoff Marsh won the World Cup in 1999 as the Head Coach of Australia. He was successful as a player, as well. Shaun Marsh and Mitchell Marsh have done well for Australia. It would be a proud moment for him if another Marsh wins the tournament again.
2) Sam Curran (Son of Kevin Curran)
Sam Curran is one of the sons of former Head Coaches at ODI WC who might play in the 2023 ODI WC. Kevin Curran was the Head Coach of Zimbabwe in the 2007 ODI World Cup. He had to exit from the role after the team did not do well in the event.
Kevin Curran‘s family is also involved in the game. All three Curran siblings are an active part of the sport. However, it is Sam who is at his peak right now. The young all-rounder might play in the ODI World Cup. His role will be important for England to defend the trophy.
