At the top spot, we have the South African cricket team. In the 9 matches that the Proteas have played, they have used as many as 23 players. The South African side currently occupies fifth place in the points table and has won 3 out of the 9 matches that they have played thus far.

The highest run-scorer for South Africa with the willow has been Dean Elgar. The elegant left-hander has played 17 innings thus far and has scored 729 runs at an average of 48.60. Elgar has also scored 2 hundreds and 2 fifties in the competition. With the ball, the standout performer has been Anrich Nortje. The bowler has made the lives of several batsmen uncomfortable with his searing pace and has scalped 30 wickets in the tournament.

For the Proteas, Dean Elgar, Quinton De Kock, and Faf Du Plessis have featured in every match that South Africa has played in the championship. South Africa will next take on Pakistan in a two-match Test series that gets underway on January 26, 2021.
