Lhuan-dre Pretorious and Ryan Rickleton will automatically take the opening slots, owing to the brilliant performance they had this season where the former scored 397 runs in 12 matches while the latter scored 336 runs in just 8 matches. Ryan would also be keeping the wickets in this team.
Rassie van der Dussen can be used at number 3, playing crucial and anchor innings. He has amassed 393 runs so far in 11 games. Markram would make a brilliant number 4 having scored 340 runs and picked 5 wickets in 13 matches. He would also be leading this side.
Although Klaasen did not have his usual season where he tonks the ball out of the ground for fun, he is still an extremely dangerous player and can be used at 5. Dewald Brevis, who had an amazing season being one of the highest scorers as well as a striker of the ball, makes it to number 6.
Potgieter and Jansen will take their respective places of number 7 and 8. Their all-round performances would add to the much-needed balance to the team. Jansen was also announced to be the Player of the Tournament for his contributions to the ball as well as the bat.
Hardus Viljoen will take the number 9 spot having scalped 14 wickets in just 8 games and having the best strike season (among players with more than 6 wickets). Liam Dawson and Kagiso Rabada would be filling up the number 10 and 11 spot, having picked up 14 and 12 wickets respectively.
This playing XI looks extremely dangerous, having players of all kinds ready to play on any type of pitch. This team can surely give tough competition to any other T20 side in the world currently.
