South Africa fast bowler Anrich Nortje's injury woes have continued, ruled out of the rest of the T20 series against Pakistan, as well as three one-day internationals, because of a left toe injury.
Nortje was sidelined from September 2023 for nine months after suffering a stress fracture, although he recovered to play for South Africa in the T20 World Cup, where they reached the final in June.
The 31-year-old was initially ruled out of the T20 win over Pakistan in Durban on Tuesday after injuring the toe in training ahead of the opening match of the three-game series.
Scans on Wednesday revealed a fracture and Nortje will now consult doctors to determine what treatment is needed, a Cricket South Africa statement said.
Uncapped all-rounder Dayyaan Galiem has been named as  his replacement for the remaining two T20 internationals in Pretoria on Friday and at the Wanderers in Johannesburg on Saturday.
