Morné Nico van Wyk (born 20 March 1979) is a right-handed South African cricketer who has played in 14 One Day Internationals for the Proteas.[1][2]
He has also functioned as wicket-keeper. He made his ODI debut at Lords in 2003 scoring 17 in a very low scoring game. He is also the brother of fellow Eagles player Divan van Wyk. On 9 January 2011 in a Twenty20 International match against India, Morné scored the quickest half-century ever by a South African. It came off only 24 balls.
During the 2014-15 West Indian tour of South Africa, van Wyk scored a Twenty20 International century in the third T20I of the series, and by doing so became the third South African to score a T20I century.
