Skipper Finally Clears Air On His Seemingly Sleeping Picture!

The wait is finally over. The much-awaited 2023 ODI World Cup started today with defending champions England and runner-up New Zealand locking horns. The match is underway and the fans are enjoying the flying start to the tournament. After a long gap, India is hosting the mega cricket event.

Ahead of the event, the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 Captains Day on Wednesday was held the other day. Ahmedabad hosted the event with the skippers of all the teams taking part. But South Africa skipper Temba Bavuma became the talk of the town after pictures and visuals of him showing falling asleep.

This became viral as the skipper seemed to have fallen asleep when such a big event was held. People are talking about the incident more. When so much is being talked about this, Temba Bavuma reacted to this and said that he did not fall asleep, and it is the camera angle that needs to be blamed.

Taking to social media, the South African skipper said that he was not sleeping and it was the camera angle that needed to be blamed. "I blame the camera angle, I wasn’t sleeping," the skipper said.

The upcoming World Cup event is a big occasion for Bevuma as this is the first time he is leading the team in the 50-over World Cup. He is entering the tournament with a lot of expectations as the team is blessed with a lethal bowling attack. In the 2011 edition of the World Cup played in India, South Africa played some good games. Let us wait and see what the team can do now.
