Reeza Hendricks and Romario Shepherd delivered stellar performances in the second T20I between South Africa and West Indies, showcasing their prowess ahead of the SA20 auction scheduled for October 1. Despite being released by Joburg Super Kings for Season 3, their recent exploits could see them return to the squad.
Shepherd, who rejoined the Super Kings for Season 2 after being released following Season 1, stands as a notable example. Ahead of this auction, the Joburg Super Kings have a budget of Rs 3.925 million to acquire three players, including two potential overseas signings, with only one current all-rounder, David Wiese.
Hendricks shone with a blistering knock of 44 runs off 18 balls, hitting six fours and two sixes, while Shepherd was named 'Player of the Match' for his bowling, aiding the Windies in a 30-run victory. Despite a strong start, South Africa collapsed from 129/3 to 149, ensuring West Indies a convincing series win and a 2-0 lead.
