The International Cricket Council (ICC) has often managed to entertain the cricket fans on social media with their witty as well as innovative captions which have not only been entertaining but at times have been annoying as well. For instance, when the governing body of world cricket had given a 'Terminator' effect to MS Dhoni's heart-breaking run out in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019 semi-final against New Zealand, it did not go down well with the Indian fans as well as cricket fans in general. However, ICC had recently come up with a funny question that was answered hilariously by the fans.

Mitchell Marsh Called An 'idiot'

Australian all-rounder Mitchell Marsh, who broke his hand after slamming it into a wall out of frustration recently, has revealed that the national teach coach Justin Langer called him an 'idiot' after that incident. The 27-year-old all-rounder was about to return to the squad for the two-Test series against Pakistan starting on November 21 in Brisbane. However, he fractured his bowling hand and has hampered his chances by expressing frustration after the Sheffield Shield match between Western Australia and Tasmania ended in a draw. Now, Marsh stands to miss the start of the home summer, which features the Test series against Pakistan.

Marsh apologises to the team

Mitchell Marsh faces up to six weeks on the sidelines. According to a report on Cricket Australia's official website, he has apologised to his Western Australian teammates for his behavior. He feels that he has let them down and set a bad example by letting his emotions get the better of him. He termed his act as 'uncharacteristic'. Being the captain of Western Australia, Marsh led the charge with an impressive half-century. However, he was caught and bowled by Jackson Bird soon after that, which made him lose his temper.
