Quinton de Kock is having a dream World Cup 2023. He is not only performing with the bat, but has been exceptional for the Proteas behind the stumps.

A moment of this brilliance took place in the ongoing World Cup match against The Netherlands in Dharamsala. His decision-making behind the stumps proved to be effective for South Africa as the Dutch side was pushed on the back foot.

The incident occurred in the 8th over of The Netherlands innings. With cloud covers hovering around, and having lost Vikramjit Singh early in the innings, the Dutch team were eager to get a big partnership around. However, a Marco Jansen ripper led to the wicket of Max O'Dowd.

[Watch] QDK's brilliant moment behind the stumps

Despite a brilliant delivery from Jansen, the talk of the moment was QDK's presence of mind behind the stumps. O'Dowd nicks a good length delivery from Jansen as de Kock took a simple catch. The umpire was unmoved as he felt there was no edge. However, de Kock was alert at the moment and he convinced skipper Temba Bavuma to go for the review.

The decision paid off as the ultra-edge showed a big spike as the ball went past the bat. The moment reminded fans of MS Dhoni, who was ultra alert and was always sharp behind the wickets.
