Mohammad Amir vs Quinton de Kock
Mohammad Amir is some amazing form in this edition of World Cup and will be a force to reckon against South Africa, especially Quinton de Kock. The South African wicket-keeper batsman is known for providing brisk starts to his side and it is something that the Proteas will be looking up to in their clash against Pakistan. Amir would be looking to provide early breakthroughs and his fiery duel with Quinton de Kock would be amazing to watch.
Wahab Riaz vs Hashim Amla
Hashim Amla hasn’t been in his best of form this season, whereas Wahab Riaz has looked equally threatening (in patches) in his spells. Both Wahab and Amla will be carrying a lot of responsibility as they take the field.
Amla is a veteran and would be finding ways to get Wahab and the Pakistani bowling attack. As for Wahab, he has this knack of troubling the best of batsmen in Opposition’s ranks and would love to relish the challenge posed by Amla.
Fakhar Zaman vs Kagiso Rabada
The South African pacer is currently one of the best fast bowlers in the world. However, he hasn’t been able to convert his form in helping Proteas’ cause at the World Cup. On the other hand, it will be Pakistan’s Fakhar Zaman, who has a penchant to give bowlers a run for their money.
Rabada has pace and swing, and Fakhar Zaman has brute power and placement. In the battle of pace and placement, it will be interesting to see who trumps either.
