Claremont Cricket Club have appointed wicketkeeper-batsman Daniel Smith captain ahead of the 2023-24 Western Province Cricket Association premier league.
Smith is contracted by Western Province. His availability for Claremont Cricket Club will likely be limited.
All-rounder Harlan Greig has been named Claremont Cricket Club vice-captain.
Claremont Cricket Club are effectively preparing for the exit of top-performing duo Josh Breed and Matt de Villiers.
Breed and de Villiers were captain and vice-captain, respectively, during Claremont Cricket Club’s 2022-23 title-winning campaign. They won the 2022-23 WPCA premier league and Ama20 Competition.
Both are awaiting visas to play for Merivale-Papanui Cricket Club in Christchurch, New Zealand, during the southern hemisphere summer.
