Thami Lungisa Tsolekile (b. 9 October 1980) is a South African cricketer who has played three Test matches for South Africa as a wicket-keeper in 2004–05. He failed to pass 25 runs with the bat, and though his glovework has been described as sound by Cricinfo journalist Neil Manthorp, it was not enough to keep his place against established wicket-keeper Mark Boucher. Tsolekile's selection over Boucher also prompted commentaries in the press that positive discrimination had gone too far. [2]. In first class cricket, Tsolekile is a regular wicket-keeper and captain of the Cape Cobras, and he has played five matches in the 2005–06 season, making 251 runs with a highest score of 91.
