Champions Trophy: Bosch Named Replacement For Nortje In South Africa’s Squad
Cricket South Africa: South Africa have named fast bowler Corbin Bosch as a replacement for injured speedster Anrich Nortje in their 15-member squad for the upcoming Champions Trophy, starting from February 19.
Bosch, 30, made his ODI debut against Pakistan in December last year and later got his Test debut against the same opposition. With Nortje out of the eight-team tournament due to a recurring back injury, Cricket South Africa (CSA) on Sunday named Bosch into the team in place of him.
CSA also said fast bowler Kwena Maphaka has been added to the squad as a travelling reserve. Bosch and Maphaka along with Proteas batter Tony de Zorzi will depart for Karachi on Sunday to join the South Africa squad for the remainder of the ongoing tri-series in Pakistan, which serves as crucial preparation matches for them ahead of playing the Champions Trophy.
