Former Proteas T20 captain Temba Bavuma has praised Aiden Markram’s leadership during the T20 World Cup.
Markram has taken the captaincy over from Bavuma almost two years ago. In his first tournament in charge, the 29-year-old batsman has taken the Proteas to their first-ever T20 World Cup. Having beaten Afghanistan in the semi-final, South Africa will now play the winner between England and India in the final.and in that time, the current Proteas T20 skipper served as vice-captain.
“Aiden may not have scored the number of runs he would have liked, but his leadership has been phenomenal,” Bavuma told“His captaincy style really brings the team together and has given them a lot of belief. It’s collaborative leadership and you can see the team have that belief and they are really playing for each other.”“I think tactically Aiden has also been very good, using all that spin against the West Indies was really crucial.
“KG Rabada has his big celebrations back every time he takes a wicket; it’s not that he hasn’t been celebrating, but now you can really see how much it means to him every time he gets a wicket,” he said.Bavuma said Markram’s level-headedness was key in getting the Proteas far in the T20 World Cup. “Aiden has a real competitive edge, and he is 100% engaged in everything he does, but he is also very calm and level-headed, which creates the right environment for the players to produce their best performances,” he said.
