Not for Lizaad Williams.<\/p>\n<p>Williams, 27, made his international debut at the Wanderers last Saturday. He did so carrying a great deal of emotional weight.<\/p>\n<p>Upon receiving the call from selection convenor Victor Mpitsang last month that he\u2019d be part of the South African side for the series against Pakistan, Williams admits he had mixed emotion. There was the obvious joy at having a boyhood dream fulfilled. But there was despair that he couldn\u2019t share that dream with someone, who\u2019d provided the initial support to help him fulfill it.<\/p>\n<p>ALSO READ: Proteas level series against Pakistan after comfortable win in second T20<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere were mixed emotions,\u201d Williams reflected on Tuesday. \u201cI wanted to share the news with my mom, but she passed away a few months ago.\u201d Lizette Williams died in October 2019, leaving Lizaad and his two siblings.<\/p>\n<p>In April last year, after completing his studies, he made the move north from Cape Town to Pretoria to play for the Titans. \u201cI needed to leave everything behind in Cape Town&#8230; when you look back and think about the hard work and sacrifices that you needed to make, to achieve your dream, so all that stuff brings a lot of satisfaction.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Williams wears his heart on his sleeve, he plays with enthusiasm and aggression, which rubs opponents up the wrong way. It is a passion engendered by growing up in the small west coast town of Vredenburg, situated nearly 150 kilometres north of Cape Town. A similar small town desire to prove himself, fueled one of Williams\u2019 heroes. \u201cDale Steyn was my favourite bowler and you look at the way he celebrates, it\u2019s emotional&#8230;it\u2019s very special taking a wicket at any level you play especially at this level.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That international wicket-taking feeling brought to you by Lizaad Williams#SAvPAK #KFCT20 #SeeUsOnThePitch@KFCSA pic.twitter.com\/ExOrQbTmYK<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s no forgetting where he comes from. \u201cMy (bowling) mark on the grass states \u2018thank you.\u2019 That goes to the meaning of being thankful for every opportunity that I get to play, even if it&#8217;s club cricket, whatever level, I\u2019m just grateful to be playing cricket. There\u2019s a lot of emotion going into it, not that I\u2019m planning to be aggressive, it\u2019s just the emotions coming out of me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Williams has been a consistent performer for the Titans across all formats, which helped to earn his call up to the national side. Skiddy and able to get the ball to swing when conditions allow, he rushes batsmen.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen coach Boucher told me I\u2019d start, you realise the dream is a reality, I slept poorly, I was awake at four in the morning, I couldn\u2019t sleep anymore. The game was playing in my mind, it\u2019s your debut, you want it to go well, you are analysing a lot of things, the older players did say that it happens to everyone in their debut, that it\u2019s the norm.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOnce I realised my dream is a reality, then my focus shifted to the next phase where you want to contribute to the success of the team. You are part of a special bunch of cricketers in South Africa. You\u2019re going to represent the guys that came before you and those that are coming after you, it\u2019s a big responsibility that you have towards the system and the pipeline of the players coming through.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>His first taste of international cricket didn\u2019t go as planned, with South Africa losing on Saturday, and Williams in the unfortunate position of conceding the runs which gave Pakistan the win.<\/p>\n<p>ALSO READ: \u2019Buffet of full tosses\u2019 with the ball cost Proteas dearly in first Pakistan T20<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the first game I was caught up in the end result of the ball I wanted to deliver,\u201d said Williams, who did manage to take his first international wicket when he bowled Faheem Ashraf in the last over of that match.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut on Monday (in the second T20 International) I was much clearer in terms of executing.\u201d He picked up three wickets, helping to restrict Pakistan to just 140\/9, with South Africa chasing down the required runs with 36 balls to spare.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m still in the phase now, where I\u2019m trying to figure out the intensity of international cricket, strengths and weaknesses of batsmen. I\u2019m still in my learning phase, even though you must learn each game. I\u2019m like a toddler going into primary school. You face different opponents each series, I\u2019m just trying to observe everything and take it in.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The third T20 International will be played at Williams\u2019 home ground, SuperSport Park, on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p><b>Related video<\/b><\/p>\n<p>@shockerhess<\/p>\n<p><b>IOL Sport<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Africa.
