Sanju Samson's bat before IPL, this player won Super Kings with all-round performance

SA 20 JSK vs DSG: The South Africa T20 League has started and in the second match, Johannesburg Super Kings made a winning start by defeating Durban Supergiants by 16 runs. In this match, a South African player showed such a game for the Super Kings, which would have made not only the Johannesburg team but Sanju Samson's team very happy before IPL 2023. We are talking about South African all-rounder Donavon Ferreira. Ferreira thrashed the Supergiants with the first bat and then played a key role in the victory of the Super Kings while doing wonders in the bowling as well. The special thing is that Ferreira will be seen in IPL 2023 with Rajasthan Royals captained by Samson.

Ferreira was bought by Rajasthan Royals for Rs 50 lakh in the recent mini auction held in Kochi. The 24-year-old player was participating in the IPL auction for the first time. Rajasthan Royals bid on Donavon Ferreira, who came at a base price of 20 lakhs, and seeing his performance in the South Africa T20 League, it seems that Sanju Samson's team has got another deadly player. Talking about this match, while batting, Ferreira scored an unbeaten 82 off 40 balls which included 8 fours and 5 sixes. Then showing his strength in bowling too, he took 1 wicket for 28 runs in 4 overs and that wicket was of set batsman Quinton de Kock.
