Ardmore have signed South African all-rounder Aviwe Mgijima for the 2023 season.

The 34 year-old is an experienced campaigner, having played for Western Province, Cape Cobras and Border in his native country.

He is a middle-order batsman, averaging 25.75 in 85 first-class matches, with two hundreds.

Aviwe is also a right-arm off-spinner taking 64 wickets at just over 33, with a best-bowling effort of 5 for 24.

"We are delighted to have signed a player of Aviwe's calibre and experience," said an Ardmore CC spokesperson.

"He came highly recommended by our outgoing professional Tyron Koen and Rob Humphries at WSX.

"He will not only add depth to our playing strength, but as a Level-Two coach will work extensively on the youth coaching programme which we have been building up in recent times.
