Marshall William Davies (born August 17, 1930, in Bulawayo, Rhodesia) was a first-class cricketer who played for Rhodesia in the Currie Cup.

After appearing for Rhodesia sporadically from his debut in 1951, Davies cemented a spot in the middle order in the 1954-55 Currie Cup season by making 353 runs at 58.83.[1] This tally included his highest first-class score of 133 which he made against Griqualand West at Kimberley.[2]

Marshall did even better the following season and from his six matches made 432 runs 61.71, with another century against Griqualand West and one against Orange Free State.[3]
