Bosch Gets Pink With Emotional On Debut

Corbin Bosch can hardly imagine the week hes enjoying. Its almost as if Christmas came early and not just once but twice!

It was only last week when Proteas Test coach Shukri Conrad put his arm around Bosch at the Wally Watson Oval in Cape Town to inform the 30-year-old Titans all-rounder of his maiden call-up to the Proteas Test squad for the upcoming series against Pakistan.

Bosch, who was playing for the SA Invitational XI, wore a silly smirk on his face for the remainder of the four-day match against the England Lions. The fact that the Pakistan series opener was set to be played at home ground, SuperSport Park in Centurion, added to the excitement.

But before any of that could transpire, Bosch got another call. This time it was from Proteas white-ball coach Rob Walter.

Ottniel Baartman was the latest Proteas fast bowler to break down with an injury and suddenly Bosch was being kitted out in pink for an ODI debut and handed his first international cap by his former SA Under-19 captain Aiden Markram for the final match of the series at the Bullring.
