Mzansi Super League 2018: Best XI of the tournament
This eleven can give any team in the world a run for its money.
4. Faf du Plessis (c) | Paarl Rocks
The Proteas skipper Faf du Plessis also had an eminent run in the tournament. He led the Paarl Rocks really well in the tournament. However, his side was very unfortunate as the Eliminator was washed out due to rain and resulted in their sorrowful exit from the tournament.
Faf will continue to lead this XI as well. He scored 318 in MSL 2018 in 8 innings at an average of 56 and a strike rate of 157. Du Plessis struck four half-centuries during the course of the tournament.
5. AB de Villiers | Tshwane Spartans
Picking AB de Villiers in this XI was slightly a tough one. Players like Gihahn Cloete and Janneman Malan performed imperceptibly better than the former South African cricketer. Although they might deserve a chance here, AB de Villiers fits in better given his striking ability.
Batting at number five, AB de Villiers has got an important role to play. In 10 games, de Villiers scored 282 runs at an average of 31 and strike rate of 162. He and Faf du Plessis will have to shoulder the burden of the middle-order in this side.
