After spending a lot of time grabbing wickets for fun in the Domestic set-up, the left arm spinner was finally included in the South African Test team and he repaid all the faith invested in him.

However, ODI cricket is a different cup of tea and his inclusion in the place of chinaman bowler, Tabraiz Shamsi is surprising. Also, he has not played a lot many Limited overs matches recently and Shamsi has had good returns with the ball.

The selectors have included him owing to his ability with the bat too, but then he is primarily a bowler and in England where there will not be much assistance for the spinners, he would be closely monitored.
