Kieron Pollard to don MI Cape Town colours for the first three matches of the SA20 2024 season in the absence of Rashid Khan

This is a great news for MI Cape Town fans, as Pollard is a world-class player who will bring a lot of experience and leadership to the team. He is also a very popular player, so his presence in the team is sure to generate a lot of excitement.

It is a bit unfortunate that Rashid Khan will be missing the first three matches of the season, but it is understandable given his busy international schedule. However, having Pollard in the team will help to offset his absence.

Here are some of the things that Pollard can bring to MI Cape Town:

  • Experience: Pollard is a very experienced player, having played in all major T20 leagues around the world. He has also captained the Mumbai Indians in the IPL to five championships.
  • Leadership: Pollard is a natural leader. He is known for his ability to motivate and inspire his teammates.
  • Power: Pollard is a powerful hitter. He can hit the ball long and hard, which can be very effective in T20 cricket.
  • Bowling: Pollard is a useful bowler. He can bowl both spin and medium pace. This versatility will be valuable to MI Cape Town.
