If reports are to be believed, Cricket South Africa is mulling the possibility of bringing back former captain Faf du Plessis to the T20Is.

Du Plessis, who retired from Test cricket back in Feb 2021, wasn't selected for the T20 World Cups in 2021 & 2022 despite scoring a plethora of runs in T20 leagues all across the world. 

But now, according to an ESPNCricinfo report, South Africa's new white-ball coach Rob Walter is interested in getting du Plessis back into the T20 fold with an eye on the 2024 World Cup.

In fact, CSA is considering the idea of single-format contracts in order to achieve just that. However, it remains to be seen if anything substantial comes of it.
