Baxter offered an explanation for his selection and said the 28-year-old Motshwari was the heartbeat of Pirates in the recently concluded season‚ making the Buccaneers play when they had the ball and quickly recover it when they had lost it. “I think Ben Motshwari has shown a very good mentality to go with a good understanding of the game. And he’s been consistent.”
“Thembi [Thembinkosi Lorch] has been grabbing all the headlines but he still needs people like Ben Motshwari‚ who will do the structure bit‚ to allow him to play.
