David Teeger To Captain South Africa’s 15-member Squad In 2024 U19 Men’s Cricket World Cup

SA U19s Convenor: Cricket South Africa (CSA) has announced that batter David Teeger will be captaining South Africa’s 15-player squad set to feature in the upcoming 2024 U19 Men’s Cricket World Cup to be held in the country across January and February.

Teeger had recently gone through an internal independent enquiry from CSA and was cleared of any wrongdoing over the statements he made after getting the “Rising Star Award” at the Jewish Achiever Awards.

Last month, after receiving the award, Teeger had praised young Israeli soldiers, which led to a complaint made by the Palestine Solidarity Alliance. As of now, Teeger will be aiming to lead South Africa to their first Men’s U19 World Cup title since 2014. Other prominent squad members include Kwena Maphaka, Lhuan-dre Pretorius, Richard Seletswane and Dewan Marias.
