[2] During the 2008 summer season Morkel played for Durham County Cricket Club in the North East of England along with fellow South African Shaun Pollock mainly in the Twenty20 Cup competition.

Roelof van der Merwe was expected to be retained by Somerset but work permit issues left the club to seek an alternative.

[5] Albie played for the Chennai Super Kings since the inaugural season of the Indian Premier League where he had a very successful tournament as an all-rounder.

Such exploits with the bat and his useful bowling gained him immense popularity and recognition and made him a household name among the Super Kings' fans.

On 22 December 2016 while playing cricket during a holiday at Mossel Bay, Albie found a piece of debris that several believe is from Malaysia Airlines Flight 370.

[8] This was reported on 24 December, and it is believed to be a trailing edge from the flap segment that was found in June 2016 at Kojani, Pemba Island in Tanzania.
