Dale Steyn was not impressed with Cricket South Africa, whose Instagram account congratulated Lungi Ngidi for winning the IPL 2021 title with Chennai Super Kings, but had no mention of star batsman Faf du Plessis and veteran bowler Imran Tahir. CSA put out a post, captioning: “Congratulations @lungingidi on claiming the 2021 IPL title with Chennai Super Kings.”
The post did not go down well with first du Plessis, and later Steyn. du Plessis, who emerged as the second-highest run-scorer of the season, scoring with 633 runs for CSK, replied saying: “Really???”
Steyn then took over and slammed the social media handle of CSA. “Who’s running this account? Last I checked Faf isn’t even retired, Imran isn’t retired, both these guys have given years of service to CSA and they were not worth a mention? Disgusting,” replied the former SA quick.
