SA20 Auction Pick Gives Cele’s Career A Timely Boost Ahead Of Season 3
Cricket SA National Academy: Sunrisers Eastern Cape paceman Okuhle Cele, is turning out to be a source of inspiration for any young fast bowler as he is set to return to action after a big break, picked in the defending champions Sunrisers Eastern Cape squad in the auction for Season 3 of SA20 T20 tournament.
The 27-year-old was at the peak of his powers when he received a maiden call-up to the Proteas Men’s T20I team for a tour to Pakistan back in 2021. But, instead of it being the springboard to launch his career, Cele suffered major injuries in the aftermath and spent more than a year and a half on the sidelines undergoing rehabilitation.
Furthermore, it prompted a move back home to the Dolphins from the Titans, as Cele looked to return to the basics that had earmarked him as one of the most promising fast bowlers in the country since making his first-class debut as a teenager fresh out of Glenwood High School.
