MSL 2019: 3 Players to watch out for in the tournament
These players will be under the spotlight during the season.
Thando Ntini (Paarl Rocks)
The son of former South African fast bowler, Thando Ntini became the youngest player to be picked up in the wild-card picks. He is another player who has come up the ranks through the Under-19 World Cup. He was in South Africa’s squad in the 2018 Under-19 World Cup and played three games.
Since then, he’s been under the spotlight. The pace-bowling all-rounder has done well in the recent past. In the series against Sri Lanka’s Emerging Players, he picked up seven wickets in three 50-over games. He took a four-wicket haul in the longest format as well. Thus, he was picked up by Paarl Rocks in the wild-card draft.
Hence, quite a few of them will keep an eye on Ntini, given that he is the son of a former fast bowler. Paul Adams has rated him highly and said that Ntini has made a ‘good, steady start and is bowling with decent pace’.
