Marshall made his first-class debut for Barbados against Jamaica in 1993, playing two further matches in that season's Red Stripe Cup.[2] After four years out of the team, he returned for a fixture with the touring Indian team where he took figures of 6/62 in their first innings.[3] Despite that performance he was overlooked by the West Indies Cricket Board when they ran a leg-spinners coaching clinic later that year.[4] Marshall made occasional appearances over the next few seasons as Barbados generally preferred left-arm spinner Winston Reid.[4] In 1999–2000, Marshall enjoyed his best season taking 28 wickets at an average of 16.17, he was the team's leading wicket-taker and third highest in that year's Busta Cup.[5] That season also saw Marshall record his career best figures of 7/49 against the Windward Islands, taking four further wickets in the second innings to be named man of the match.[6] He was less consistent the following season and made his final first-class appearance against the Leeward Islands.[7][2]

Marshall played club cricket in England for Vauxhall Mallards from 1999 to 2001.[8] An attempt to join them in 1998 had to be aborted after he was denied a work permit.[9]

After his playing career, Marshall has coached the Barbados club side Spartans.[10]
