Men’s ODI WC: Craig McDermott Urges Australia To Use McCullum Tactic From 2015 Against De Kock In Semi-final

Craig McDermott Australia: Former fast-bowler Craig McDermott Australia can use the tactic they implemented in 2015 World Cup final to get the better of Brendon McCullum against South Africa opener Quinton de Kock in the second semifinal of 2023 ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup at the Eden Gardens on Thursday.

De Kock, who will retire from ODIs after the World Cup, has been in red-hot form for the Proteas, making 591 runs in nine innings at an average of 65.66 and strike-rate of 109.24, including smashing four centuries.

“Quinton de Kock has got a pretty high bat lift as well and it's something that they may think about doing in those first couple of balls. If you don't get it right, you're going to get driven down the ground for four or through covers. But if it comes off (it could take a wicket).”
