Bavuma to miss World Cup warm-ups

CSA said this was due to family reasons.

Bavuma will therefore miss South Africa’s two ODI World Cup warm-up matches against Afghanistan on 29 September and New Zealand on 2 October.

Aiden Markram will captain the side in his absence.

The Proteas’ first World Cup match is against Sri Lanka on 7 October.
