Disappointed Shaun Marsh says must learn to bat through the innings like dad

Hobart, Jan. 19 : Young Australian opener Shaun Marsh has said that while he is satisfied with the fact that he has scored five half-centuries in ten one-day internationals, he is unhappy about not batting through an innings like his dad Geoff did for the country in the 1980s and 1990s.

Marsh, who scored a 103-ball 78 to earn the man of the match award in Australia''s five-run victory over South Africa in Hobart on Sunday, left the ground disappointed.

His father, Geoff, was one of the rocks around which Australian cricket rebuilt itself, especially in the one-day arena - in which he made nine centuries opening the batting.
