Wunderkind Lhuan-dre Pretorius targets Proteas World Cup win after world record 188*
T20 world record-breaker Lhuan-dre Pretorius hopes he can play a part in the Proteas winning an ICC World Cup in the future.
T20 world record holder Lhuan-dre Pretorius, the 20-year-old wunderkind, aims to be part of a South African World Cup victory. He shattered the record set by West Indies legend Chris "The Universe Boss" Gayle by scoring 188 not out off 79 balls for the Titans against the Knights in Bloemfontein. Pretorius, who once broke the record himself, expressed his desire to win an ICC World Cup with South Africa, acknowledging that things happen for a reason.
He emphasized that he doesn't play the game for individual records, but rather to contribute to the success of the team he's representing. Pretorius rose to prominence during the Betway SA20 Season 3, where he became the tournament's leading run-scorer. His talent and hunger for scoring runs led him to the world record. He also praised his teammate Vaibhav Suryavanshi, the 15-year-old IPL sensation, predicting he will eventually break the record.
