Protea and Dolphins all rounder Andile Phehlukwayo has been rewarded for his fine form these past few seasons by being named in the Protea squad for the ICC World Cup later this year.

“I am so excited and humbled to be a part of this team – it really is a dream come true. I hope to make South Africa proud, and look forward to competing for the ultimate prize in cricket” said an elated Phehlukwayo.

Lee-Roy Newton, group MD of Newton Agency, was equally pleased – “We always knew Andile was a special talent, and this selection is just reward for all his hard work and great performances. We couldn’t be more proud of him, and can’t wait to see him in action at the World Cup”.
