Jon-Jon Smuts is not thinking too far ahead to the T20 World Cup in Australia later in the year because of the fierce competition for places in the South African limited overs sides.

Smuts‚ who was named man-of-the-match for his 84 and two wickets in the six wickets win over Australia in Potchefstroom on Saturday‚ said he would continue to raise his hand whenever opportunities present themselves.

“At the moment I am kind of taking it series by series to be honest‚” he said after they wrapped up a series whitewash of Australia."Many people are saying they are the best side in the world and they are going to be extremely difficult to beat at their own conditions. “I suppose my career over the past five years has taken a bit different route. I started out as an opening batter and I moved to the middle order over the last few years.

“He did say to me that injuries happen in any series and I was fortunate to get an opportunity through an injury even though it was hard luck for Temba.
