Men's ODI WC: Need Some Of The Juice He's Having, Says De Kock After Klaasen Blasts 49-ball 90 In SA Win

ODI World Cup:  After blasting a blistering 140-ball 174 against Bangladesh in an ICC Men's ODI World Cup match, South Africa opener Quinton de Kock said he was "a bit more tired than satisfied", and wanted to have "the juice" teammate Heinrich Klaasen's been having as the middle-order batter nearly scored his second successive century in the Men's ODI World Cup 2023.

De Kock held South Africa's innings together after they lost two early wickets and raised two century stands -- a 131-run partnership with skipper Aiden Markram (60) and a sensational 142-run stand with Klassen (90 off 49) as South Africa raced to 382/5 in 50 overs. With de Kock and Klaasen going great guns, South Africa blasted 144 runs in the last 10 overs of their innings.

In reply, a counter-attacking run-a-ball 111 by Mahmudullah went in vain as Bangladesh were bowled out for 233 and lost by 149 runs.
