The inclusion of Voges, following that of Lance Klusener, indicates a clear ambition by the Super Giants to fortify their technical and strategic resources.
Voges’ form

His remarkable Test batting average of 61.87 is etched in history as the third-highest ever, a testament to his proficiency with the bat.
Beyond his playing days, Voges transitioned seamlessly into a coaching role, where his leadership skills shone brightly. He has an illustrious record with Western Australia, leading them to eight domestic titles, and has propelled the Perth Scorchers to two Big Bash League (BBL) championships. His significant accomplishments as a coach reflect a deep understanding of the game and an ability to inspire and guide teams to victory.
