The South Africa National Cricket Team has been hit with a big blow ahead of their upcoming two-match series against Zimbabwe. South African captain Temba Bavuma has been ruled out of the upcoming Zimbabwe tour due to a hamstring injury that he picked up during the recent ICC World Test Championship Final 2025 against Australia at Lord’s.
The injury to Bavuma’s left hamstring has forced him to miss the upcoming Test series in Zimbabwe. Cricket South Africa (CSA) on Friday, June 20, confirmed that the skipper will miss the Zimbabwe tour and will go through further medical scans to understand how serious it is.
