Ryan Rickelton, a South African opener, has declared his intention to participate in the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy.
At the National Stadium in Karachi, he demonstrated his batting prowess by hitting a century in SA’s opening match against Afghanistan.
As Rickelton dominated the field against Afghanistan, captain Temba Bavuma’s choice to bat first under the circumstances in Karachi paid dividends.
This was noteworthy because it was his first ODI hundred.
