He has been in stellar form recently.
Cricket South Africa (CSA) has named their replacement for fast bowler Anrich Nortje, who was ruled out of the Champions Trophy 2025 owing to a recurring back injury. In his absence, Mumbai Indians’ sister franchise MI Cape Town bowler Corbin Bosch has been named as a replacement.
Notably, Bosch was in stellar form in the recent SA20 2025 and was amongst the top 10 bowlers in the edition.
Although he has been primarily chosen for his bowling, Bosch can also be a handy contributor with the bat and South Africa will be hoping that he delivers across all the departments in the ICC event.
Corbin had previously made his Test and ODI debuts in the recent home series against Pakistan in December-January. The 30-year-old will now join his younger brother Eathan, who is already in Pakistan with the tri-series squad.
