Wayne Parnell: Wayne Parnell bowls over his new bride

Renowned New Zealand cricketer Martin Crowe has proposed South African skipper AB de Villiers that pace bowler Wayne Parnell should be given the new ball, to ‘boost his self-confidence and maximize his ability to swing deliveries’ in the on-going World Cup.

In his column for the ESPNcricinfo, Crowe declared that the South African bowling requires ‘small bit of tuning,’ saying that fighting Wayne Parnell should be ‘given a chance at starting the bowling,’ Sport24 reported.

South Africa endured a humiliating 130-run defeat against India last week. Before they had registered a sloppy win over Zimbabwe in their World Cup opener.

Crowe averaged 45.36 in his 77-Test career, which included 17 centuries.
