      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Australian cricketer Shaun Marsh has announced his retirement from professional cricket and will make his final appearance when Melbourne Renegades take on Sydney Thunder on January 17.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Marsh, 40, follows his Renegades’ team-mate Aaron Finch in bring down the curtain on his playing days.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In March 2023, he brought down the curtain on his red-ball career as he confirmed his retirement from first-class cricket.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Marsh moved to Renegades for the 2019-2020 season after his stint with the Perth Scorchers where he played a significant role in the team’s success, averaging 47.46 in 40 games for them.&lt;/p&gt;

        &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/RenegadesBBL/status/1746401126487138621?s=20"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
    &lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
        
    &lt;/figure&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He will be placed in sixth place in the Big Bash run-scoring charts and is among the only 10 men to score over 2,500 runs in the competition.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He piled up 12,032 runs at an average of 41.20 in 183 first-class appearances.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Marsh represented Australia’s national team in 38 Tests, 73 ODIs and 15 T20Is between 2008 and 2019, scoring over 5,000 runs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Renegades coach David Saker said that Marsh is one of those people who are universally liked and admired by anyone who’s ever played with them.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“If I could have any batter in Australia to help plot and chase down a total, it’d be SOS. He has raw power and he has the experience to wait for the right shot at the right time which is critical in T20 cricket,” he added.&lt;/p&gt;
