South Africa’s plans for the ODI leg of their Pakistan tour have taken a hit, with young batting sensation Dewald Brevis sidelined by a shoulder injury sustained during the T20 series in Lahore.

The 22-year-old picked up the injury during the third T20I at Lahore’s Gaddafi Stadium on Saturday, and scans later confirmed a low-grade shoulder muscle strain, sidelining him from the 50-over series.

In a statement, Cricket South Africa (CSA) confirmed:

"Momentum Multiply Titans batter Dewald Brevis has been ruled out of the three-match One-Day International series against Pakistan due to a low-grade shoulder muscle strain. He sustained the shoulder injury during the third T20 International at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore on Saturday."

CSA added that Brevis will stay in Pakistan to undergo rehabilitation with the Proteas medical team as he works toward recovery ahead of the upcoming Test series in India.

The board added that Brevis’ replacement for the ODI series will be announced soon.
