Kwena Maphaka ruled out South Africa's tour of Pakistan
South Africa have been dealt a massive blow ahead of their white-ball assignments, with fast bowler Kwena Maphaka ruled out of the one-off T20I against Namibia and the upcoming white-ball tour of Pakistan due to a hamstring strain.
."Subsequent scans and medical assessments revealed a grade 1-2 injury, and he will undergo rehabilitation over the next four weeks," a CSA release said.
The injury has forced the management to bring in Ottneil Baartman as Maphaka’s replacement for the Namibia fixture, which is set to be played on October 11. Baartman has also been added to the T20I squad for the three-match series against Pakistan, scheduled to take place later this month. Lizaad Williams, who is already part of the T20I squad, has also been included in the ODI squad for the Pakistan series.
