Thami Lungisa Tsolekile

Date of Birth: 9 October 1980, Cape Town (Cape Province) Bats: Right Hand Bat Bowls: Right Arm Off Break Other: Wicketkeeper

Another Cape Town native dreaming big in life, started off young toying with the idea of playing football and hockey before settling on cricket. In South African domestic cricket, he's made a place for himself as wicket keeper where he has shown tremendous talent and fighting spirit. 

The reason why he has been selected for the India tour is he has tremendous hands, he is a very nimble wicket keeper indeed, and does not let a lot go through him.

In the batting department, his style is one of not much elegance, but rather nitty gritty, working the singles, turning ones into twos, and he is capable of staying at the crease for a long length of time.
