Dale Steyn ruled out of third Test against England

Dale Steyn, the South African paceman, has been discounted of the third Test against England with a shoulder damage that he managed in the opening Test in Durban. 

Steyn, who had pulled up twice over the span of England's innings in the first Test, was at first named in the squad for the third Test at the Wanderers taking after positive reports in regards to his recuperation. In any case, he doesn't appear to have recouped in time, and as baffling as it is for South Africa, Russell Domingo, the mentor, stays cheery about his rebound. 

"I don't believe it's the end of Dale Steyn," he said on Monday (January 11). "All players will encounter some kind of niggles. He is an incredible athelete. He is as fit as they can come. We know he is an extraordinary bowler. He is the best bowler on the planet. We haven't had him since the first Test in India visit and that has been disillusioning." 

The 34-year-old has been covered in a harm cloud after he got a crotch damage on the voyage through India which discounted him for three recreations. He made a speedy recuperation before the begin of the England arrangement, however endured a shoulder strain which precluded him of the rest of that amusement and the second Test in Cape Town. 

Kyle Abbott, who was discounted of the second Test with a hamstring strain is fit again and could be the main change in the side that takes the field for the third Test. 

Britain lead the four-match Test arrangement 1-0. The third Test begins in Johannesburg on January 14. source - cricbuzz
