Rob Walter remains in the exact same position regarding Quinton de Kock’s future availability as when he stated “your guess is as good as mine” in the immediate aftermath of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup final in Barbados back in July.
Proteas white-ball coach Rob Walter has left the ball in Quinton de Kock’s court, should the veteran opener seek a return to the international fold.
De Kock, 31, is no longer nationally contracted and has retired from both Tests and ODI’s already. There was great suspicion that De Kock might quit the Proteas altogether after the Barbados final, but nothing official has emerged related to his T20 international future as yet.De Kock is certainly still keeping active, having played Major League Cricket in the US, and is currently in action for the Barbados Royals in the Caribbean Premier League.
“We have decided to give opportunities to some of the fringe players as well as those who have impressed in recent weeks and months.” “We have to just allow him to have his space to play league cricket and to do what he needs to do. What will become more and more important is performance. He’s not exactly old, so from here on in, it’s a performance-based conversation."
