The Australian Southpaw David Warner has shown his experience and ability to take the momentum away from the opps. He scored 163(124) vs PAK, 104 (93) vs NED, and 81 (65) vs NZ and smashed 18 sixes in those 3 innings.

Next on the list is Heinrich Klaasen, a powerful batter for the Proteas. The middle order of South Africa is strong, and Heinrich Klaasen is the guy responsible for this. They are also exceptional at closing off games by applying as much pressure as possible to their opponents.
