It’s not going to be so nice on the field as much as their regular reputation when the Kiwis battle against the Proteas.

The fast bowler has been in great nick ever since the warm ups & can totally wind up the South African batting line up. With the dampness of the pitch, he might not be able to get the amount of shape he’d like but it’s his sheer brilliance with the variations that he can take the game away from the opposition.

Kagiso Rabada has shown a lot of potential but is still waiting for that one highlight like the IPL season. The South African bowler has been anticipated as the future of South African cricket. If Rabada delivers today then South Africa have a great chance of winning this one and choke the Kiwis. (Oops!)

The Captain has been the lone ranger for the Proteas so far and it’s been a long time since the other batsmen other than van Der Dussen stepped up to the occassion. Faf has been in great nick and will be one dominant player to watch out for in the match today as the Kiwis will look to completely derail the competition.
