Titans return to the Seychelles for pre-season tour

The Multiply Titans will return to Seychelles later this month as part of the franchise’s pre-season preparations.

A 24-man party, including 18 players, travel by Air Seychelles on Wednesday 21 August and will spend five days on the main island of Mahé before making their way back to South Africa on Monday 26 August.

During their stay, the Sky Blues are set to play a 20-over fixture against familiar opposition, the Gran Kaz Kings at the Stad Popiler on Sunday 25 August. The home side will be made of players chosen from all 10 teams in the local league.

This is the Titans’ second successive tour of Seychelles. While on the island, the team will take an active role in driving cricket development in the local community by hosting a coaching clinic for 300 boys and girls from Mahé.

Following on from the clinic is an exciting addition to the tour – a Titans Charity Golf Tournament.

Away from the competitive activities, the players will have the opportunity to explore the island, with trail hikes and catamaran excursions, organised by Creole Travel Services.

It will be the first time that youngsters Neil Brand, Ruan de Swardt and Kyle Simmonds link up for a pre-season tour with the Sky Blues.

Titans squad for the pre-season tour: Andrea Agathangelou, Matthew Arnold, Farhaan Behardien, Neil Brand, Corbin Bosch, Henry Davids, Ruan de Swardt, Tony de Zorzi, Dayyaan Galiem, Gregory Mahlokwana, Tshepo Moreki, Alfred Mothoa, Lungi Ngidi, Marcello Piedt, Kabelo Sekhukhune, Tabraiz Shamsi, Kyle Simmonds, Grant Thomson.
