Quinton de Kock has already announced that he will retire from ODIs after the 2023 ODI World Cup. There are chances that a few South African stars might follow him. There is a demand for the Proteas in various T20 leagues across the globe. Hence, a few players could make this decision. On that note, here, we take a look at the list of two South African cricketers who could retire from ODIs after the 2023 ODI World Cup.
1) David Miller
David Miller is 33 years old and after this ODI World Cup, the management might search for a long-term replacement for him. The likes of Tristan Stubbs would surely be in the mix. Hence, Miller might, as well, retire from ODIs and concentrate on the T20 format, which is his forte.
The first focus for Miller, though, will be to help his team do well in the ODI WC. Having played a lot in India, he definitely has the skills to become an important player. If he can finish a few games on his own, South Africa can reach the semi-finals.
2) Tabraiz Shamsi
Tabraiz Shamsi is one of the South African cricketers who could retire from ODIs after the 2023 ODI World Cup. It is clear that South Africa will invest in a spin-bowling all-rounder after the World Cup. It is required for the balance of the side.
Shamsi is one player who might miss out on the squad. Once the No.1 T20I bowler, the left-arm wrist-spinner’s performances have dipped off-late. Nevertheless, he is an unorthodox bowler and can always pick wickets. Interestingly, he has not got so much demand in the T20 circuit. This is something he might focus on, especially because this would be a good way to secure his future. Therefore, the 33 year old cricketer is also a part of this list.
