Players to watch


Tshwane Spartans has probably the best batting attack in MSL. With the likes of Eoin Morgan and Rilee Rossouw the middle order of the Spartans look formidable. Especially with former Proteas captain, Dean Elgar at the top of the order, the Spartans got a batting lineup that is going to be a treat to watch. In the auctions, the Spartans have acquired the most number of foreign players. Sri Lankan all rounder jeevan Mendis is going to play a pivotal role in the teams ventures.


The Trump Card


There has never been a team, which has not feared AB de Villiers. Even after his retirement, AB de Villiers commands the respect to be deemed as the key Player for any team in the world of which he is a part. Mr. 360 is world acclaimed to play shots all around the ground effortlessly. He makes cricket look deceivingly easy. For the Spartans it is extremely important that de Villiers finds his form and if he does there is no stopping his rampage!
