Dwayne Steyn Questions Proteas' Decision to Exclude Gerald Baartman
Dwayne Steyn has questioned the Proteas' decision to exclude Gerald Baartman from the T20 World Cup squad, but it seems there's actually no information available on Baartman's exclusion. However, South Africa is dealing with several injuries to their fast bowlers, including Gerald Coetzee, who is ruled out of the SA20 and doubtful for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 due to a hamstring strain.
Ottneil Baartman, another fast bowler, has been ruled out of the third ODI against Pakistan with a right knee injury.
Dwayne Steyn threw shade at the Proteas selectors, questioning Gerald Baartman's exclusion from the T20 World Cup squad. Steyn pointed out Baartman's impressive SA20 record, which is on par with Anrich Nortje's and better than anyone else's in the squad.
Baartman has played in three finals, taken wickets against top batters like Matthew Breetzke and Heinrich Klaasen, and is currently with Paarl Royals, who are second in the points table. Steyn's message is clear: Baartman's form and experience make him a strong contender for the squad.
