ICC World Twenty20 India 2016: Â South Africa v England — Quinton De Cock

Quinton De Cock has been South Africa’s explosive opening batsman in ODI cricket for the last five odd seasons. The wicket-keeper batsman with his power packed hitting is one of the cleanest strikes of the red cherry. De Cock gets the Proteas off to some fliers in the power plays and also had the ability to play the long innings scoring some match winning tons. Once set, he usually converts his starts into big hundreds and takes his team across the line. The left hander's innings are generally laden with boundaries and his runs come at quite a fair pace. De Cock's potent opening partnership with the seasoned Hashim Amla has really augured well for South African cricket.
