List of South Africa-born cricketers who played for other countries

9. Marnus Labuschagne (Australia)

Marnus Labuschagne was born in Klerksdorp, in South Africa's North West province in 1994. His family moved to Australia when he was 10. He worked for Channel 9 as a hot-spot operator at the Gabba, in Brisbane. In a rather mind-boggling turn of events, Labuschagne made his Australia debut in Tests in 2018, after Steve Smith suffered an injury during the Ashes tour.

Since then the prolific batter has emulated the batting prowess of his best friend and has not looked back. Speaking of his impressive international cricket career for Australia, Marnus Labuschagne has played 43 Tests, scoring 3789 runs with 11 centuries, and played 39 ODIs, scoring 1295 runs with two centuries. He has also played one T20I match. Currently, Labuschagne is a vital member of the 2023 World Cup Australia squad.
