Migael Pretorius Returns!
Migael Pretorius is set to return to the Cooper Associates County Ground in 2025.
The all-rounder is expected to be available for the duration of the season.
The 29-year-old impressed during a stint with the Club last summer in which he featured in eight County Championship matches, scoring 324 runs at an average of 32.40 with a best of 95 not out against Nottinghamshire at Trent Bridge. He also claimed 23 Championship wickets including a five-wicket haul at Edgbaston.
The right-hander also featured in Somerset’s Vitality Blast victory at Hampshire Hawks, where his two for 22 helped his side to a comprehensive nine-wicket win.
After agreeing to rejoin the Club, Migael said: “I really enjoyed my time at Somerset in 2024 and I’m looking forward to joining up with the team again this summer. There’s a really positive atmosphere around the Club and I was impressed by the level of support that the players get at every game, both home and away.
“The team came so close to winning a trophy last year and hopefully I can help Somerset to get over the line in 2025.”
Somerset Director of Cricket, Andy Hurry added: “Following his time with us during 2024, Migael knows what it means to represent the Club and understands what we are aspiring to achieve here.
“He has a proven ability to impact games, and he will add further all-round quality as well as depth to our already impressive seam attack. Understanding how demanding the season is for teams competing across all three competitions, we feel that squad depth will be a vital factor for us.”
