Nortje Ruled Out Of SA’s Remaining White-ball Matches Against Pakistan
Cricket South Africa (CSA) said on Thursday that Nortje, 31, was initially ruled out of the first T20I between South Africa and Pakistan at Kingsmead in Durban on Tuesday after sustaining a contusion to his left big toe during training ahead of the opening match. It added that subsequent scans on Wednesday revealed a fracture, with Nortje to consult a specialist orthopaedic surgeon to determine the recovery period.
Nortje had made a return to the South Africa T20I side for the Pakistan series, making it the first time of him being in the national set-up since the Men’s T20 World Cup in June, where they finished as runners-up to India. White-ball head coach Rob Walter had said that Nortje was on their radar to play next year’s Champions Trophy.
