After only 5 games, Will Jacks is already in the pole position for most runs. The youngster is a promising talent. He has also bagged an IPL contract. Will Jacks is most importantly known for being technically sound, yet being attacking. He has a good game against the short ball. The second on the list is Jos Butler who needs no introduction. Each of us has seen his capabilities in the IPL 2022 season. He single-handedly pulled the game away in the favor of the Rajasthan team. He is doing the same for the Paarl Royals.

Anrich Nortje | Pretoria Capitals | 5 | 10 |
Evan Jones | Paarl Royals | 5 | 9 |
Ottniel Baartman | Sunrisers Eastern Cape | 4 | 9 |
Imaad Fortuin is a new name in South African domestic cricket. But Aaron Phangiso is a pretty old one. Phangiso is one of the senior-most players in the league. He was a part of the South African squad when they toured India back in 2014. He made a name for himself while playing for the Highveld Lions in the Champions League. With 11 wickets to his name, Imaad is leading this tally. And with 10 wickets to their names, Phangiso and Nortje are trying to chase Imaad down.
