Former cricketer Lance Klusener has issued a stern warning to Indian batters for their looming T20 World Cup 2022 bout against South Africa. The two sides are slated to collide on October 30 at the Perth Stadium.
Klusener believes the Indian team has a stiff task ahead of themselves, considering the recent form of South Africa’s pace attack. The Proteas’ bowlers shot out the Bangladeshis for just 101 in their previous game, and scripted a huge 104-run win for themselves. Speed merchant Anrich Nortje claimed four of those wickets, while giving away just 10 runs off 3.3 overs.

The former South African all-rounder recently praised his team’s hostile bowling recitals at the ongoing T20 World Cup 2022 in Australia. The cricketing legend added that he is excited to see how an in-form Indian unit will tackle the Proteas’ pace attack when the two sides face-off in Perth on Sunday.
Klusener also praised ace spinner Tabraiz Shamsi for his match-winning three-fer against Bangladesh. He said:
“We might see another pacer in Perth. I was really impressed with the way Tabraiz Shamsi bowled the other night. He is a wicket-taker. It is about to change the balance of the team a bit with Dwaine (Pretorius) being injured...the game there for me will be how well the Indian batsmen can handle the pace of South Africa.”
