FORGOTTEN PROTEAS WEAPON UNLEASHES HELLFIRE IN BLOODBATH OPENING. National Selectors, You Have NO EXCUSE Now.
The Sunrisers Eastern Cape didn’t just win their SA20 opener. They committed a PUBLIC EXECUTION. After posting 186, they BOWLED OUT the Paarl Royals for a pathetic, record-threatening 49 runs. This wasn’t a cricket match. It was a statement, delivered by a man written off by an entire nation.
The architect of the carnage? Anrich Nortjé. The “forgotten” speedster, crippled by injuries for YEARS, just exploded back onto the scene with a terrifying 4/13. His searing pace ripped through the Royals’ lineup, a brutal, three-over reminder sent directly to the Proteas selectors sleeping on his talent with the T20 World Cup just weeks away.
Why has his absence been so quiet? Who benefits from a nation forgetting one of its most dangerous weapons? While Nortjé fought through rehab, others took his place. Now, he’s not just back; he’s hunting for his spot with raw vengeance. “Hopefully I get selected,” he said after the massacre, his words a calm challenge to the powers that be.
The Sunrisers are champions for a reason, and with a weapon like Nortjé back in their arsenal, loaded and angry, the competition should be terrified. He’s taking it “game by game,” trusting a body that has betrayed him before.
But the selectors’ silence on his return is louder than any delivery he bowled. One dominant performance has shattered the comfortable narrative, exposing the fragile line between being injured and being erased.
They hoped you wouldn’t notice he was gone. Now, they’re praying you forget what he just did.
