It added that Rassie van der Dussen will captain the team for the final match of the series against Ireland in Bavuma\u2019s absence. South Africa holds an unassailable 2-0 lead heading into last match of the ODI series happening on Monday, after the T20Is against Ireland ended in a 1-1 draw.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Bavuma, 34, sustained the elbow injury during the second ODI on Friday after landing on it while making ground at the non-striker\u2019s end in the 12th over of South Africa\u2019s innings. The injury also prevented him from fielding in the second innings.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
CSA added Bavuma will return home with the rest of the squad on Tuesday and will consult a specialist, following which an update on the extent of his injury will be provided in due course.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Bavuma has sustained the injury on the very same elbow he hurt during South Africa\u2019s T20I tour of India in 2022. It further ruled him out of South Africa's tour of England, before making a comeback ahead of the 2022 Men\u2019s T20 World Cup, where South Africa made an exit in the group stage of the competition in Australia.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
CSA added Bavuma will return home with the rest of the squad on Tuesday and will consult a specialist, following which an update on the extent of his injury will be provided in due course.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
