The South African team for the forthcoming World Test Championship final, which will take place at Lord’s Cricket Stadium in June, has been revealed. Temba Bavuma, the great batsman and captain of South Africa, will lead the team, which will include some gifted and productive players.
However, the Proteas have had poor luck in the major International Cricket Council (ICC) tournaments. Nevertheless, their previous cricket players, such as the legendary AB de Villiers, continue to support them. In addition to supporting his country’s team to win their first-ever WTC championship and second ICC trophy, he also identified potential crucial players for the Rainbow Nation before the match.
The 2015 World Cup semi-finalist, who is 41 years old, named captain Temba Bavuma and wicketkeeper Kyle Verreynne as the players to keep an eye on in the forthcoming match.
“I believe that a key component of that batting lineup, which will be crucial at Lord’s, is to allow your bowlers some leeway and to get runs on the board there. In a video released by the ICC, AB de Villiers stated, “But I feel the batters that need to be in form, probably Temba as captain to lead from the front and then someone like Kyle Verreynne at the back end to bat with the tail.”
You have the in-form batter, which can get the tail wagging at the hind end, according to previous Lord’s experiences. The former South African cricket player said, “They score your extra 80 to 100 runs, which generally seem to help you win Test matches in the end.”
Verreynne will be vital for South Africa, according to AB de Villiers .
Additionally, AB de Villiers backed up his assertion regarding the value of Kyle Verreynne, the wicketkeeper-batter, who he believes can score vital runs at the back end in the event that the top order is unable to score a lot of runs. It would be crucial for Verreynne to guide traffic lower down the order, according to the ICC Hall of Fame inductee.
To keep up that kind of form and score runs, I believe it will be vitally critical to have someone like a Temba, Markram, or Rickelton. However, having someone like Kyle Verreynne to guide traffic at the back end once we run out of the top order will be crucial, De Villiers concluded.
