T20 World Cup 2022: South Africa’s Players to Watch out for

1. Quinton De Kock - Quinton De Kock has been a mainstay of the South African batting team in white-ball cricket, especially for the past few years. The left-hander has acquired the ability to play fearless strokes from the start as he opens the batting and gives his team a perfect start.

How many innings have left-handed players played in cricket so far? A total of 2,032 runs have been scored in all these matches. Still, all of them should play an important role in their team in the upcoming World Cup.

2. Heinrich Klaasen – Heinrich Klaasen has been one of the most influential batsmen for his team to bring down the order in recent matches. The right-back can take the big shots at will and give his team the perfect finish as well as help his team reduce the total.

His exceptional explosive batting style gives him a unique reputation among the rest. The wicketkeeper has so far scored 651 runs in his T20I career at a strike rate of 148. His good form will be a big boost for South Africa in the T20 World Cup.

3) Kagiso Rabada – Kagiso Rabada has been one of the most effective bowlers in the limited overs formats since his debut in 2015. A pacer has the ability to suppress runs and pick wickets at the same time. His amazing economic wizardry in bowling has served his side well over the years.

The 27-year-old has taken 54 wickets in 49 T20I matches in his career and will be an important part of his team's bowling department in the T20 World Cup.

World Cup T20 2022: Winning Prediction

The South African team appears to be one of the strongest contenders for the T20 World Cup this time. The team has produced some of the finest performances in the shorter format of the game in recent times. However, the team will face stiff competition from top teams like India and Pakistan in the Super 12 matches, which could make matters more difficult for the Proteas.

However, South Africa has some of the best T20I players in the world, each of whom can be very effective on any given day. So it would be fair enough to say that the team will make it to the semi-finals of the T20 World Cup and possibly win the title for the first time in history.
