Not many would’ve expected the South African team to be humiliated the way they were in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019. Their batting lacked spice and the bowlers could hardly make up for it. The injury concerns made their condition even worse. The only beacon of light in their miserable campaign was the form of their middle-order batsman, Rassie van der Dussen.

Having the reputation of an explosive batsman, Rassie showed maturity and temperament in all his innings throughout the World Cup. He anchored the innings throughout the middle-overs and let loose at the end. His partnership with Faf du Plessis in the last league match against Australia (where he scored 95 of 97 deliveries) was the only reason South Africa managed to save their pride by defeating the 5 time World Champions.

He scored 311 runs with a healthy average of 62.2 and a Strike rate of 90.4 emerging as the second-highest run-scorer for his team. He also has a reputation for being an excellent T20 batsman. IPL franchises will surely be looking forward to getting him in order to strengthen their middle order.
