Profile Summary
2018 could not have been better for Nandre Burger. First, he got a call up for the SA emerging side in July and then with the ankle injury to Anrich Nortje, Burger got a chance to replace him at MSL 2018 where he would be plying his trade for Cape Town Blitz.
Having started playing provincial cricket in 2015-16, Nandre has made steady progress and has gone on to play for Highveld Lions as well. Nandre also finished on top of the bowling charts in 2017-18 provincial one day cup which is the second tier list-A tourney in South Africa.
Despite decent performances, his career looked like it was heading towards domestic oblivion with the South African pace unit hardly needing any new faces with Kagiso Rabada, Lungi Ngidi, Marco Jansen and Anrich Nortje ruling the roost.
However, a change in fortunes came when Burger gave his name for the 2023 IPL auctions, and he was picked up by Rajasthan Royals at base price. Shortly after, he got a call-up for the ODI and Test series against India, making his debut in both formats. Burger proved to be a revelation in the Tests, tormenting the Indian batters with his pace and swing as South Africa claimed a comprehensive win at Newlands.
