South Africa face a major setback ahead of their 2023 ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup campaign with injury concerns turning into their worst nightmare.
South Africa will be without Anrich Nortje and Sisanda Magala at the World Cup after the duo failed to clear a fitness test. While Nortje was named in the initial 15-member squad, both players failed to recover after the home series against Australia.
Andile Phehlukwayo and Lizaad Williams have been roped in as replacements for the injured pacers. Phehlukwayo featured in two ODIs against Australia and picked up a wicket each. (ICC)
