While players and coaches pull their hair out and bounce off the walls in hotel rooms in frustration over quarantine‚ Proteas bowling star Lungi Ngidi can’t ask for a better way to prepare for a Test match.

The 25-year-old Durban-born Ngidi is in the Caribbean with the SA team for a two-match Test series and five Twenty20s. The first Test starts on Thursday at the Daren Sammy Cricket Ground in St Lucia.

“I enjoy my own space and it is really where I can just focus on the work at hand, which is pretty much what I enjoy. West Indies coach Phil Simmons told the media the wicket at the Daren Sammy Cricket Ground looks as though it will suit the seamers‚ which is a strength of both sides‚ and Ngidi agrees.

The visit is the Proteas' first bilateral tour to the Caribbean since 2010‚ barring a tri-series in 2016 that also featured Australia.“It’s been different. I’ve never been here before. It’s a beautiful country with wonderful people.”
