Proteas star batsman Aiden Markram has revealed that self-doubt crept into his mind during a terrible loss of form and a period on the sidelines due to injury.
The Centurion-born star burst into the consciousness of Test cricket after scoring two hundreds in his first three matches since his debut against Bangladesh in 2017.
He recovered in time for the home summer visit of England but fractured a left hand finger while bating on day two of the opening Boxing Day Test in Centurion. With fans calling for him to be axed due to poor form as he got a rude awakening of being an international cricketer‚ Markram revealed that he started to doubt his abilities.
“So yeah‚ I have never thought of giving up but I’ve certainly doubted myself‚ and doubted myself quite a bit this last year since it was quite a struggle for me‚” said Markram.
