Xavier Melbourne Marshall (born 27 March 1986 in Jamaica) is a West Indies cricketer. He is a batsman and a talented fielder. However in recent years he has failed to live up to his previous reputation as a promising young cricketer, and his progress in international cricket has since stagnated as a result of much inconsistency in batting scores.
