Kwena Maphaka Gets Maiden Call-up As SA Name Squad For Windies T20Is
Windies T20Is: Fast-bowler Kwena Maphaka has earned a maiden call-up to South Africa's squad when they play three T20Is against the West Indies later this month. Maphaka bagged Player of the Tournament award in this year’s U19 World Cup by picking 21 wickets at an average of 9.71.
He also made his domestic T20 debut for the Lions and was roped in by Mumbai Indians (MI) for this year’s Indian Premier League (IPL). Medium-pace bowling all-rounder Jason Smith has also been handed a maiden call-up by South Africa, after amassing 291 runs at an average of 41.57 and a strike rate of 134.10 in the 2023/24 CSA T20 Challenge, including making 51 in the final.
"We’re excited to have Jason (Smith) and Kwena (Maphaka) join the squad for this series. Jason’s recent performances have been impressive, and his ability to contribute with both bat and ball adds valuable depth to our line-up.”
