3 Players To Watch In SA vs AFG CWC Match 42: ICC CWC 2023
Heinrich Klaasen
As per the 3 Players To Watch In SA vs AFG CWC Match 42, Kevin Pietersen hailed Heinrich Klaasen as the best spin basher currently in white-ball cricket. Who’s to argue with KP then?
Heinrich Klaasen might just be the most destructive batsman currently on the planet. England found out the hard way: Klaasen smashed 109 runs in 67 balls even while struggling with heat and humidity in Mumbai. This knock came just a month after he’d smashed 174 (83) against Australia in Centurion.
In ODIs in 2023, Klaasen has an average of 55 and a strike rate of 147; simply out-of-the-world numbers. No batsman with a minimum of 500 ODI runs this year has a higher strike rate than Klaasen’s.
Kagiso Rabada
As per the 3 Players To Watch In SA vs AFG CWC Match 42, Kagiso Rabada has been shifted down to being the first-change bowler for the Proteas in this World Cup with Jansen and Ngidi sharing the new ball. And this has worked well for them so far.
Because this gives Rabada more fielders in the deep outside the powerplay overs, Rabada’s accuracy in hitting the good and hard lengths in the middle-overs has meant an increase in his efficiency. He has so far taken 8 wickets at an average of only 22, striking every 23.1 deliveries. Afghanistan batters have a hard task at their hand in facing the Protea pace quartet led by Rabada.
Rashid Khan
According to the 3 Players To Watch In SA vs AFG CWC Match 42, there is a clear improvement in Rashid Khan’s numbers in this World Cup compared to the previous editions. Rashid has 6 wickets in 4 matches, which came at 30 apiece.
However, Afghanistan would want more potency from their main leg-spinner, considering the form South Africa’s batters are in. Rashid took a hat-trick during the IPL in Ahmedabad.
