Marsh said the poor performances in India were more a matter of lapse of form rather than a lack of fitness or conditioning.
NO MAJOR CHANGES
``We'll sit down and obviously talk to the selectors about the tour but I don't see any major changes,'' Marsh said in Adelaide on the team's return home.
``You've got to remember this team's done very well over the past 10 years and just because they have six bad games I don't think you need to make big changes.
``The players are there, they've just got to get themselves in good nick and I'm sure they'll be back on the road again.''
Marsh said he remained confident the players would benefit enormously from a return to their domestic Sheffield Shield sides with the prospect of playing under more relaxed circumstances before the first Test against the West Indies starting on November 22.
TWO SHIELD GAMES
``They've got two shield matches before the first Test. I'm sure they're looking forward to playing four-day cricket and not be under the pressure of one-day cricket,'' he said.
``They need to bowl some good long spells and spend some time at the crease without having to belt everything over the top.''
Marsh said positive aspects from the Indian tour included the batting of Michael Slater at number six in the one-day games, the form of captain Mark Taylor so soon after back surgery and the efforts of South Australian pace bowler Jason Gillespie.
Taylor believed a short stint in the Sheffield Shield could be just the tonic his players needed in the lead-up to the West Indies.
DIDN'T PLAY BADLY
``We didn't play that badly and we weren't able to win but at least we have had some international cricket,'' he said here.
``I think the good thing to come out of the tour is we've got two Sheffield Shield games to get ourselves right and I still think we can play well against the West Indies.''
In Brisbane, Australian vice-captain Ian Healy stressed morale was still high among the players but added whether the losing streak had any effect was yet to be seen.
``The Shane Warne factor was definitely missing. He doesn't only lift the confidence of our team and our bowlers but also does something to the opposition as well,'' he said. Australian crick- et coach Geoff Marsh Wednesday ruled out major surgery on the makeup of the Australian team for this summer's West Indies five-test series despite six defeats in India.
