Steyn unsure if T20 WC will be held this year

Published on: 

Veteran South Africa pacer Dale Steyn is unsure whether the T20 World Cup, scheduled to take place in Australia in October, will take place or not amid the coronavirus outbreak in the world.

Steyn was doing an #AskDale session on Twitter and a fan ended up asking about his thoughts on the impending ICC tournament late this year in Australia.

“Is it even gonna happen?” Steyn replied.

Steyn was also asked to name the best batters he bowled to during his illustrious career.

"They all good ey! Ponting was prime, Sachin was a wall, Dravid, Gayle, KP, they were all so good!" he said.

Steyn also said his seven-for against India in Nagpur and six-wicket haul against Pakistan at the Wanderers remain one of his best bowling spells.

"Nagpur (7 against India) and wanderers (6 against Pakistan)," he replied to another fan's question.

The 36-year old also said he is honing his cooking skills during lockdown in South Africa.

Steyn also picked his first Test wicket as the most memorable one.

"My first one, I guess I'll always just remember it so it's the winner. "I loved bowling a batsman when he left the ball, often it came from a set up so I enjoyed that my often silly plans ended up working," he added.

One T20 wicket or a spell that is special to Steyn?

"I played a 20/20 against West Indies in Port Elizabeth many, many years ago, blew a few poles away with some yorkers and a good slower ball, loved that performance, but we still lost, haha," replied the ace quick regarded as one of the best of all time.
