Quinton de Kock is arguably the most charismatic South African cricketer of this generation. His talent is unmatchable and the man is turning it on in World Cup 2023, with three centuries so far in just five games. He smashed two consecutive centuries to start off the tournament with a bang, and after couple of failures, he has now again reached the magical three-figure mark with a scintillating knock against Bangladesh. This Quinton de Kock's 20th ODI hundred and he is now the youngest South African to score 20 hundreds.
The South African southpaw is looking like a man on mission and is showing some great maturity by mixing caution with aggression. South Africa also lost two wickets early with just 36 on the board but Quinton de Kock was in no mood to let the pressure get better of him and continued his fluent strokeplay. Aiden Markram at the other end, also batted brilliantly and the duo notched up 131-run stand for the third wicket. Klaasen then joined De Kock and is looking in great touch with some lusty blows, complementing Quinton de Kock perfectly.
At the time of writing, South Africa are 196-3 at the end of 35 overs and it would be interesting to see how the Proteas go about their business from hereon.
