Parnell youngest to get a contract

"At 19 years old, Wayne Parnell is the youngest player to be awarded a CSA contract and there are very good reasons for this," Cricket South Africa CEO Gerald Majola said.

"Wayne has come through the CSA structures since he played Bakers Mini Cricket as a 10-year-old, and has always shown that he is capable of converting his considerable talent into results," Majola said.

"I was still at school 15 months ago and, although I have always had ambitions of playing for South Africa somewhere down the line, I never imagined that it could happen so quickly." said Wayne Parnell.
