Quinton de Kock: Quinton de Kock is the most popular captaincy option for this game. He is in tremendous form and can wreak havoc against a relatively weak Netherlands attack. Quinton will look to extend his fine work.
Aiden Markram: Aiden Markram is among the safest captaincy options for this game. Markram will contribute to all the departments, and his recent form has also been good. Expect Markram to fetch a few crucial points again.
Bas de Leede: Bas de Leede is another popular captaincy option for this game. Bas will contribute with both bat and ball, and he is the best player in his team. He has also done quite well in two outings this World Cup.
Tabraiz Shamsi: Tabraiz Shamsi has surprisingly been picked up by less than 24% of users as of now, making him a good differential pick. Shamsi has done well against the Netherlands in the past, and the Netherlands team are not as good against the quality spinners. He can scalp a few wickets.
Roelof van der Merwe: Roelof van der Merwe has been selected by less than 25% of people as of now. He is a seasoned campaigner and can trouble the Proteas batters with his accuracy. Roelof can also add a few crucial runs in the lower order.
Max O’Dowd: Max O’Dowd hasn’t done anything significant so far and can be avoided for this game.
