South Africa have the winning momentum on their side as they are coming into this series after beating West Indies in the T20Is.

Quinton de Kock is definitely a very important asset of the South African side. Recently against the West Indies too, he had a good time with the willow by giving good starts to the team. He would be determined to take his momentum further on.
Rassie van der Dussen is another good pick for this match. He led the mantle of the middle order for the Proteas when wickets fell in regular succession in the T20Is against the Windies. He is a pivotal cog in the team’s wheel and thus is a player one can bank on.
