Profile

Younger brother of Morne Van Wyk, who has represented South Africa in 17 ODIs and 8 T20Is, Divan is an aggressive opening batsman, who is one of the prolific run-getters in domestic cricket. 8773 runs at an average of 40.05 speaks volumes about the talent he possess.

He shot to fame when he emerged as the leading run-scorer in the CSA Provincial Three-Day Competition in the 2009/10 season. He started his franchise cricket with the Eagles before switching over to Dolphins. Despite performing consistently, he has failed to push his case and still remains to be on the fringes.
