Couldn't Have Asked For A Better Start, Says Marco Jansen On First Year In International Cricket

By IANS News January 02, 2023 • 12:29 PM View: 1520

Since his international debut in the Centurion Test against India in December 2021, Marco Jansen's stock as an all-rounder has gone up in the longest format of the game.

The left-arm fast-bowling all-rounder has been a great addition to South Africa's bowling attack in Tests, picking up 36 wickets in eight matches at an average of 19.02 in 2022. With the bat, he has shown glimpses of being reliable, especially when he registered a fifty against Australia in the second Test at MCG.
