When Lance Klusener became a threat to the South African team!
Let us inform that he is going to take a big responsibility in India, he is the same Lance Klusener, who had once become a threat to his own country’s team. Actually, this story is related to the England tour of South Africa in the year 2003, in which Clouser was not selected in the team.
Then the captain of that tour Graeme Smith had said that Klusener is a threat to the young players of the country. Smith had said that Klusener is a good cricketer but not a team man, which is why he was not selected.
Challenge to win Tripura’s trust in front of Klusener
However, these are things of the past. Now Lance Klusener is in the post-retirement phase from cricket. The challenge before him is to take Tripura cricket forward. The kind of trust that Tripura Cricket Association has reposed in him, it is expected that he will try to live up to it completely.
