Kyle Verreynne named Western Province captain for CSA One-Day Cup

South Africa wicketkeeper-batter Kyle Verreynne has been named Western Province's captain for CSA's upcoming domestic One-Day Cup which starts on September 16, replacing allrounder Wayne Parnell in the position. Verreynne had led the team in seven first-class games and three T20s during the 2022-23 season. Western Territory lead trainer Salieg Nackerdien refered to Parnell's "high responsibility lately" and a resulting "shoulder niggle" as the explanations for naming another skipper, with Verreynne decided to lead just for this season. "Wayne is occupied with physiotherapy, and ideally, he'll be prepared over the span of the One-Day Cup contingent upon his accessibility and how he answers," Nackerdien said. "He is a lot of sharp and focused on Western Region, and a vital participant in the crew. That is the justification for why Kyle is dominating - to make progression with the group, [with the One-Day Cup] beginning in about fourteen days' time. "I realize Kyle will work effectively for the group. He is as of now gelling pleasantly with the crew, adding to the climate we've made over the beyond a few seasons." Western Area won one and lost two of the T20s in which Verreynne drove last season, and won two of the seven four-day matches. As commander in those five star games, Verreynne arrived at the midpoint of 59.44 while hitting one hundred years and four half-hundreds of years. "I'm truly energized; we have a pleasant bundle of folks this year," he said. "Western Territory makes a big difference to me, so to have the option to skipper this side and lead this year is monstrous, and I'm truly anticipating it... Something I'm enthusiastic about is simply having a good time and ensuring we partake in our cricket. So all through the season that will be the message from me." Under Parnell, Western Territory were the finalists in the past One-Day Cup, where they lost to Lions in Johannesburg. This time, they start their mission against North West in Potchefstroom immediately header first day of the season. The group goes to Oudtshoorn for pre-season warm-up games in the development to the competition.
