Quinton de Kock, in the opinion of former South African hitter AB de Villiers, has a point to make. De Kock, who has been living up to his reputation in the competition by compiling an incredible four hundred in just seven matches, is set to retire from playing in the One-Day Internationals after the 2023 World Cup. With 545 runs under his belt, he presently tops the tournament’s run-scoring rankings, displaying his remarkable left-handed batting form and abilities.
De Villiers said that Quinton is hitting at the best level he has ever seen in his career. Additionally, he thinks the southpaw is looking really at ease and in excellent shape. He emphasized the need to get off to a solid start in order to support the middle order, emphasizing that the form of the Proteas opener is essential to South Africa’s success in the competition.
“It is the best World Cup performance I have ever seen him have, in my opinion. He plays as though he is at home, has a point to prove, and exudes composure throughout. It is incredibly helpful for the middle class if we get that great start; therefore, South Africa needs him to give us that solid start as frequently as possible,” AB de Villiers told the ICC.
Quinton de Kock demonstrated his superiority over everyone else by saying: AB de Villiers
De Kock, who is thirty years old, has amassed 6721 runs from 152 appearances in his ODI career. He now holds the records for the most hundreds by a South African batsman in a single ODI World Cup edition (4) and the most runs scored by a batsman in a single tournament. The former captain of the Proteas made remarks about the daring batter’s incredible consistency and form in relation to his outstanding performance in the current World Cup.
From the first day I saw him play, he has always held a particular place in my heart. Quinnie demonstrated his superiority over everyone else. He hits the ball on the rise with a consistency that I have never really seen in someone, and he has always kept that form,” Mr. 360 said.
