The ICC has confirmed the Event Technical Committee of the ICC Women’s World Cup Qualifier 2011 has approved Triholder Marshall as a replacement player for the injured Grace Chadderton in the USA squad for the tournament.

All-rounder Triholder Marshall.

The confirmation was conveyed to USA on behalf of the committee on Sunday. Chadderton suffered a fracture to a finger on her left hand during training in Dhaka, Bangladesh ahead of the tournament beginning on Monday (14 November).

Any injury or illness-based replacement requires a written submission to the event technical committee along with a diagnosis from a medical practitioner as to the extent of the injury or illness. Once replaced, a player may not return to the squad save as an approved subsequent replacement for another injured or ill player.

Marshall is a 24-year-old all-rounder and replaces Chadderton who is also an all-rounder.

As with all players in the tournament, the eligibility of a replacement player is subject to approval by the ICC before that player can be officially added to the squad.
