First impressions of Hardus Viljoen?

[Abhilash93]

Bowled at an average speed of 142-143. Though was inconsistent in the second spell, picked Cooks wicket & troubled Root at the start.

What is your opinion of him ?

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Decent,but nothing special.

 

[#GreenRoars]

He was impressive at domestic, hope he will become more good at in future at international level.

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

I like his bowling action.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Decent pace but no radar what so ever, half the time hes lucky to hit the pitch hes that wayward, hes kept Vilas on his toes with his waywardness.

 

[Abdullah719]

Seemed to be trying too hard. Lost the basics. Perhaps nerves? I can't imagine him picking up successive ten-fers in FC matches (as he did recently) by bowling like this. All over the place, though when he got it right, the batsmen weren't comfortable.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Pace but no skill . Won't last at this level for more than a few matches.

Not much control and pretty wayward.

Number of players he is beating for pace.

 

[ExpressPacer]

Sad he's gone the Kolpak way. Seems to have dramatically increased his pace.

 

[b.lesner]

he is in psl draft that too in gold category

Cape Town - Former Proteas fast bowler Hardus Viljoen has left his Kolpak deal with English county club Derbyshire by mutual consent.

According to Derbyshire's website, Viljoen requested to have the final year of his contract terminated after signing a three-year Kolpak deal in 2016.

Viljoen, who made his Derbyshire debut in 2017, will leave with immediate effect.

The 29-year-old claimed 62 first-class wickets at an average of 28. In total, he played 53 matches across all forms for the club, taking 99 wickets.

Dave Houghton, head of Derbyshire cricket, said: "Hardus wishes to look at different options to further his career and the decision was made to release him from his contract with Derbyshire.

"I would like to wish him all the best for the future."

Viljoen played only one Test for the Proteas against England at the Wanderers in January 2016, taking the sole wicket of Alastair Cook.
