Lions sign Proteas fast bowler Sipamla from Warriors

The Lions on Wednesday announced the signing of fast bowler Lutho Sipamla from the Warriors.

The 21-year-old has already represented South Africa in four One-Day Internationals and five T20 internationals.

Since making his franchise debut at the Wanderers Stadium for the Warriors in 2017, Sipamla has been a consistent performer for the Eastern Cape side in all formats of the game taking a total of 136 career wickets.

“I would like to take this opportunity and show my full gratitude and thanks towards the Warriors franchise and Eastern Province cricket,” said Sipamla.

“These past few years have been nothing but great, and I would like to thank all for a solid foundation, support and your constant backing shown towards my career thus far.

“And to the Lions family, thank you for welcoming me and opening your family doors. I’m truly grateful and looking forward to the future that lies ahead and a possibly great season.”
