Injury Setback Halts Dane Van Niekerk's Comeback Tour

By IANS News March 17, 2026 • 10:02 AM View: 151

Cricket South Africa: Dane van Niekerk’s long-awaited return to international cricket has faced an obstacle. The all-rounder will not join the South Africa women's national team on their ongoing tour of New Zealand due to a calf injury.

The former captain reversed her international retirement last year but already missed the opening match and will take no further part in the series.

Cricket South Africa confirmed the news in an official update.
