Dane Leeroy Piedt (born 6 March 1990 in Cape Town) is a South African cricketer. He plays for the Cape Cobras. He made his Test cricket debut for South Africa against Zimbabwe in August 2014.[1]

Domestic career

Piedt, like many of his other Cape Cobras' team-mates, made his first-class debut for the Western Province cricket team. Primarily an off-spin bowler, Piedt is also a useful lower-order batsman. Piedt signed with the Cape Cobras in 2011. In August 2017, he was named in Jo'burg Giants' squad for the first season of the T20 Global League.[2] However, in October 2017, Cricket South Africa postponed the tournament until November 2018.[3]

In June 2018, he was named in the squad for the Cape Cobras team for the 2018–19 season.[4]

Emerging Players tournament

Piedt represented South Africa during an Emerging Players tournament between India, Australia and New Zealand. He had a largely ineffective tournament, playing in one first-class match taking a wicket albeit expensively, and did not take a wicket in one limited overs outing.
