‘Proteas Have Good Problems, SA20 Is Making Conrad’s Job A Lot Harder’: Allan Donald

By IANS News September 12, 2025 • 17:34 PM View: 748

T20 World Cup: South African legend Allan Donald is happy that the growth and development of Proteas youngsters will give the national team head coach, Shukri Conrad, a headache while selecting the final squad which will travel to the subcontinent to play in the 2026 T20 World Cup.

South Africa fell agonisingly short when they lost to India in the T20 World Cup finals of the 2024 edition. Having ended their ICC drought after defeating Australia in the 2025 World Test Championship final, the Proteas will be a force to be reckoned with, with a young core ready to take on the cricketing world.

As part of the build-up to SA20 Season 4, Donald shared exclusive insights on team strategies, marquee signings, and emerging players to watch during a special interaction facilitated by SA20.
