    Maharaj Joins Injury List As South Africa Grapple With Fitness Issues

    By IANS News September 11, 2025 • 12:00 PM View: 1569
    Captain Aiden Markram: South Africa have been hit with a third injury setback on their tour of England, after left-arm spinner Keshav Maharaj pulled up with a groin injury during the warm-up ahead of the first T20I in Cardiff.

    Captain Aiden Markram revealed after the 14-run DLS win that Maharaj was originally set to play but had to be withdrawn at the last minute, with Corbin Bosch stepping in to replace him. Maharaj had recently been recalled to the T20I setup after missing tours to Australia and Zimbabwe.

    Earlier in the day, fast bowler Lungi Ngidi was officially ruled out of the series due to a right hamstring strain. He is set to return home on Thursday and now faces a race against time to be fit for South Africa’s next major challenge - the defence of their World Test Championship title in Pakistan starting October 12.
