"Ten years into international cricket, Quinton de Kock is the most experienced cricketer for South Africa at the ODI World Cup. Quinton de Kock's fearless batting and exceptional glovework earned him comparisons to game greats like Adam Gilchrist. By the time he turned 21, he had shared the record for the most successive ODI centuries – three – against India. De Kock is going to be an indispensable cog for his country if the perennial underachiever punches above their weight. It is not because he is one of the senior most in the team hut he has a proven record in India playing for different franchises in the IPL The southpaw, who now plays for Lucknow Super Giants, has played a pivotal role in Mumbai Indians winning the back-to-back IPL titles in 2019 and 2020. De Kock has had a fair share of controversy, be it refusing to take a knee in the T20 World Cup or announcing a shock retirement from Tests in 2021 to concentrate on the white-ball formats and playing in the T20 leagues across the globe.

One-day memory: (Three ODI centuries against India in 2013)

Quinton de Kock has 17 centuries in ODIs, and six out of those have come against India. He hit three in a single series in 2013 and ended that series with 342 runs at an average of 114.

One more thing: Quinton de Kock likes a good catch. Not only behind the stumps, snaffling flying leather projectiles effortlessly, but also beside quaint lakes, with a graphite fishing rod in hand. He considers himself a better fisherman than his former teammate Dale Steyn as he has claimed he caught an 180-pound Tarpon and 200-kilo sharks. The Southpaw is also reportedly the best dancer in the South African dressing room."
