8 youngsters who remind us of legends

Quinton de Kock - Adam Gilchrist

CRICKET-RSA-BAN-ODI

Gilchrist retired in 2008, his record of 5570 runs including 17 hundreds at an average of 47.60 is a testament to a man who redefined the role of the wicketkeeper in the modern era. He's been hailed as the greatest ever wicket keeping batsmen the cricketing fraternity has ever seen. Since then, almost every country has attempted to find their own Gilchrist, with Quinton de Kock probably coming the closest. Some of the feats he's accomplished at such a young age are unfathomable, and there's no surprise he's already being considered a future great.

Having become an integral part of the South African team across all formats with the bat, de Kock is equally good with the gloves in hand. His impeccably quick hands and extreme levels of fitness, has seen him pull off stunners from time to time, creating an opportunity out of nothing.
