Dewald Brevis is not the best batter in Test cricket for us: Shukri Conrad
"I don't think he is one of the best batters in Test cricket for us. There are other guys in the squad for SA conditions. He is probably more suited to subcontinent conditions. In Test cricket, he is a bit like our Rafael Nadal, a clay court specialist," Condar mentioned.
Two batters in the race to replace Dewald Brevis
The Proteas have published a list of an 18-man probable squad for the first Test match against Australia. They have included the uncapped Marques Ackerman in the preliminary squad. Ackerman is a pure batter with experience in playing multiple T20 leagues, like Dewald Brevis. But the cricket board preferred to show their trust in the uncapped batter instead of Brevis.
"I am thrilled when players like Leus want to come back and play for South Africa. We must be doing things right – it is heartwarming. He can stake a claim. Have we been having conversations? Not leading up to his decision, but he reached out last week. It has been busy. Over the next day or so, we will be chatting about things going forward," Shukri Conrad said.
