SL vs SA Live Updates, T20 World Cup 2024: Will Anrich Nortje play?
According to Eric Simmons, South Africa's bowling coach, "The numbers haven't been great for him in the last while but I'm not overly concerned. I've watched him quite closely during the IPL and we've had quite a few discussions around tactics and fields and things like that. If you get the balance of that right, then what can be big numbers can be turned into a far better return in terms of runs and wickets, etcetera."
