Former South African all-rounder Shaun Pollock feels pressure is building on Temba Bavuma’s captaincy despite the batter marshalling his team admirably in the T20 World Cup here with the Proteas currently on top in Group two. Bavuma scored 10 against India and just two against Bangladesh.

“It’s a shame, you feel for the guy (Bavuma). From a captaincy perspective, he is obviously manoeuvring his troops as best he possibly can, but there’s not one captain in the world who doesn’t like to lead from the front with regards to performance, and he hasn’t been able to hit his straps,” Pollock said on ICC Review on Tuesday.
