That's another good point. They're both battling for different spots. Marshall's main competition was against Mominul and he lost out. These are totally different spots. Top order batsmen require different set of skills. They need to be sufficient in handling the new ball whereas middle order batsmen have to bat against the old ball and spin. Marshall as far as a I know is a batsman that usually bats at 5-7. Asking him to bat as an opener or #3 and all of a sudden he's doing something he never did before
