Cape Town [South Africa], July 18 : South Africa's limited-overs skipper Quinton de Kock will miss the inaugural 3TeamCricket Solidarity Cup match due to unforeseen personal circumstances, the Cricket South Africa (CSA) announced on Saturday.
The 24-year-old Ryan Rickleton has been called up to replace him as a batsman and Temba Bavuma will now lead Mr D Food Kites in the inaugural match.
"Mr D Food Kites captain, Quinton de Kock has been forced to pull out of the inaugural Rain 3TeamCricket Solidarity Cup match taking place at SuperSport Park today, due to unforeseen personal circumstances," CSA said in an official statement.
