What Brackenfell Cricket Club said

“Aviwe brings tons of first-class experience to the club. There is no doubt he will be an asset for Brackenfell Cricket Club,” said head of cricket Francois Gantz.

“It is a massive positive for us as a club and as a first team squad to welcome Aviwe. Not only will he add a lot of experience, but he is an individual that is hungry to play cricket.

“I have the utmost respect for professional cricketers who want to give back to the game. The impact these players have on the game is extremely valuable. It also sets a standard and a culture that we really need to grow club cricket.”
