T20 World Cup: All eyes on Quinton De Kock as South Africa take on Sri Lanka

Meanwhile, Sri Lanka will have to quickly put the seven-wicket hammering by Australia behind them and need to start afresh

Star batter Quinton de Kock’s expected return after agreeing to take the knee will bolster South Africa when they take on an inconsistent Sri Lanka in their Super 12 game at the T20 World Cup here today.

De Kock’s pullout for refusing to be a part of the anti-racism gesture in the game against West Indies kicked up a storm which subsided with a lengthy statement from him on Thursday in which he made himself available, saying he is fine taking a knee if it “educates others.” Meanwhile, Sri Lanka will have to quickly put the seven-wicket hammering by Australia behind them and need to start afresh.
