Roach said: “Today would have been Malcolm Marshall’s 54th birthday, it’s a special day. I looked up to him as a bowler. I’ve watched a lot of clips of him and he was just such a great, great bowler.

He was the best in the world at the time. I can’t really explain it, it’s a good feeling to know that I got some wickets on his birthday and it makes me feel warm.”
