Geoff Marsh returns from Sri Lanka
Western Australia Cricket Association - 6 October 1999

Geoff Marsh returns to Perth tomorrow after his three and a half year stint as Australian cricket coach.

The father of three resigned as Australia coach in August to spend more time with his family, but has since joined the Australian selection panel.

He returns on a disappointing note with Australia losing their first-ever Test series to Sri Lanka 1-nil.

His former Australian team-mate Allan Border has replaced him as interim coach for Australia's tour of Zimbabwe which begins with a tour match at Bulawayo on Friday.

Marsh rates the June World Cup triumph in England as the highlight of his coaching career, along with Test series wins in Pakistan last October and South Africa in 1997.
