How did Kyle Abbott fare in the #HotSeat?

Kyle Abbott thumbail

Proteas fast bowler Kyle Abbott is certainly one of the most feared bowlers in world cricket.


He had a sensational Test debut against Pakistan in 2013 when he grabbed figures of 7/29, the second best figures for a South African on debut ever.


Abbott has become a household name in South African cricket with his consistency with the ball, but also the runs he chips in with at the tail of the batting card.


Earlier this year Abbott announced he will be leaving his province of birth and the Sunfoil Dolphins to join the Warriors in PE.


Kyle is a local boy - born and raised in KZN's Empangeni, and will be missed at the Kingsmead Cricket Stadium, especially with his career continuing to be on the rise.


Abbott was in Durban for a couple of days after representing the Kings 11 Punjab in the IPL and before he jetted off to the Caribbean with the Proteas he popped in for a chat on the #HotSeat.


Kyle spoke about his reasons for leaving Durban for PE, his cricket career as a whole, and got thrown some quick fire questions which made him SWEAT.


Have a listen...
