South African batsman Quinton de Kock, who has recently been elevated to the position of captain for the last two ODIs of the ongoing five-match series against Sri Lanka, has withdrawn from the Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club deal.

The 25-year-old was scheduled to play four Specsavers County Championship matches for the club at the end of the season. The withdrawal, reportedly, came at the request of Cricket South Africa (CSA). They reasoned that the left-hand batsman has a reoccurrence of an injury to the right index finger and the management wanted it to be healed ahead of the upcoming busy cricket schedule.
