Broken finger bad news for Bavuma and SA
Temba Bavuma’s chances of featuring in the Test series against India have been given the finger. Bavuma‚ who is part of the Test squad but was not picked for the first two Tests‚ broke a finger playing a oneday match for the Cobras on Wednesday and has been ruled out for up to four weeks. What with opener Aiden Markram facing a fitness test on Tuesday on a thigh injury he sustained during the second Test in Centurion last week‚ Bavuma could have been in the frame for the third Test at the Wanderers on Wednesday.
