CAPE TOWN : South Africa will be without middle order batsman Temba Bavuma for their three test tour of England starting in August after he was ruled out with an elbow injury, officials confirmed on Wednesday.
South Africa white-ball skipper and Test vice-captain Temba Bavuma has been ruled out of their tour of England which starts next month, Cricket South Africa said on Wednesday. Bavuma suffered an elbow injury during a recent Twenty20 series in India and needs eight weeks to recover. The Proteas will play three world championship Tests, three one-day internationals and three T20 internationals against England as well as two T20 internationals against Ireland in England. Left-arm spinner Keshav Maharaj will lead the one-day team and batsman David Miller will lead the T20 side in Bavuma's absence.
Proteas Test batsman Temba Bavuma said he was "devastated" after it was confirmed he would not join the national team on tour next month owing to injury.
Limerick manager John Kiely insists his side have benefitted from their four-week break ahead of Sunday's All-Ireland SHC semi-final meeting with Galway.
Despite a promising start, this Ireland XV was soon overwhelmed by a more cohesive Maori All Blacks outfit.
Bavuma, who is also the limited overs captain of the side, will miss the Twenty20 and One-Day International series as well having been their most consistent performer in the longer format over the last year. The selectors have opted for only two spinners in the squad in Keshav Maharaj and Simon Harmer, who has vast experience of county cricket with Essex.
Ireland gave India a run for their money despite the visitors posting a daunting total of 225/7 in the second T20I at the Malahide Cricket Club in Dublin. Displaying bravery in their batting, the Andy Balbirnie-led side pushed the match to the final delivery, but ended up four runs short. With George Dockrell and Mark Adair both in an explosive mood, India captain Hardik Pandya turned to young pacer Umran Malik, playing just his second game for the country, for the final over, with Ireland needing 17 off it.
Linfield's Champions League opponents have announced the signing of former Irish League winger Josh Daniels. The New Saints confirmed the 26-year-old's arrival on Wednesday.
