Johan Botha is a cricketing journeyman who came through the ranks in South Africa representing his country in 5 Tests, 78 ODIs and 40 T20 Internationals.
The short format specialist, has plied his craft in franchise cricket around the world with stints in the IPL, BBL and CPL.
In this episode of the Cricket Library Podcast we will learn of where his passion for the game began, playing for South Africa in the u-19s World Cup, breaking into the South African ODI & Test teams, overcoming setbacks to return to the team and lead South Africa to a ODI Series win in Australia in 2009.
Johan also shares about his passion for long distance running and gives us an exclusive scoop into something he is training for at the moment.
Needless to say, he will select three people he would most like to have a net with and his selections are an interesting mix.
