Despite being an integral member of the national side for the past five years, Anrich Nortje has not had his national contract renewed.

Fast bowler Anrich Nortje has been back in action for the Dafabet Warriors after a lengthy injury lay-off. But he has not been awarded a new CSA contract.

Sisanda Magala, Wayne Parnell and Keegan Petersen are the other cricketers to not have their international contracts renewed. “We are pleased to announce the Proteas Men and Women’s contracted squad for the 2024/25 season,” Director of Cricket Enoch Nkwe said. “The player selection for both squads reflects our commitment to nurturing talent and rewarding exceptional performances.

In total, Nortje missed five months of action – mainly the South African summer – which included a multi-format home series against India as well as the SA20 tournament. The express fast bowler has excellent international figures. He has 70 wickets in 19 Test matches at an average of 26.71 for South Africa and 36 wickets in 22 ODI’s for the country.
