Windies wizard to help Cobras

Cape Town - The Cape Cobras are expected to announce the signing of West Indian spinner Sunil Narine, a report on Die Burger's website indicates.

The Cobras are expected make the announcement public later on Tuesday.

The 25-year-old, who currently plays for Trinidad & Tobago in the Champions League T20, is expected to play T20 cricket for the Cobras this season.

He took 2/23 in four overs when Trinidad & Tobago beat the Titans on the Duckworth/Lewis method in Ahmedabad on Monday.

Narine was also the star for the West Indies when they won last year's T20 World Cup in Sri Lanka when he took 3/9 in the final to stun the hosts.

His overall T20 first class record is equally impressive, having taken 93 wickets at an average 15.86 and conceding only 5.40 runs per over.

No! I think the smart thing to do is start again with a younger skipper ...

I'd keep Siya captain for now, but look to have someone else for 2027.
