He also took 2-41 in Kolkata’s clash on Friday with Gujarat Lions, who didn’t play Andrew Tye.

The once-bearded fast bowler claimed Marsh’s wicket, with the top-order batsman making 30 from 24 balls.
Marsh made his first appearance of the IPL season earlier in the week, posting 26 from 21 balls against Mumbai Indians.
