Teams underestimate Maxwell, De Kock wary of off-spinners ahead of AUS vs SA match

“I think that's why he's doing really well, because he knows he's a good spinner,” said De Kock, praising Maxwell's bowling skills.

South African wicketkeeper-batsman Quinton de Kock is far from underestimating Australia's bowling attack despite the men in yellow losing their 2023 World Cup opener against India.


Australia and South Africa will face each other on Thursday, October 12 at the Ekana Stadium in Lucknow. The teams recently played against each other, with South Africa claiming a sensational 3-2 win despite a 2-0 defeat in their first two games.

The pre-match buzz has seen South African wicketkeeper-batsman Quinton De Kock comment on Australia's bowling strategy and shed light on all-rounder Glenn Maxwell's underrated spinner abilities.

De Kock was asked about the Australian bowling team who decided to enter the tournament with just one specialist spinner, Adam Zampa. The wicketkeeper-batter said Australia have a balanced bowling attack and the likes of Glenn Maxwell are quite underrated as bowlers.

“I think they are a really good bowling attack. I think they are well balanced. You know, you've obviously got Starc as your left arm here, he swings forward a lot and throws really good Yorkers towards." The end. There's a guy like Hazelwood and Pat Cummins who doesn't really give you bad balls, who has really good rebounds. And then of course comes Cam Green, who adds more balance to his seam bowling attack. And he also bowls at 140 plus,” said de Kock in the press conference before the game.

“Then Maxi, I think a lot of people underestimate him. I think he's a really good offie, especially in the white ball format. I think he knows he's a good spinner. I think other people don't give him the respect he deserves. But that’s what I’ve seen and observed over the years.”

South Africa and Australia have had some exciting encounters in the past. Quinton de Kock himself was part of an altercation with David Warner in the 2018 Test series that saw the Sandpapergate episode.

However, De Kock feels that at the end of the day the players have to show their skills to win the game. He explained this:

"I am not completely sure. I think it's just a great rivalry. I think it's just international cricket, that's just how it is. Both teams are strong teams, both have big egos, both want to win, want to beat each other. So I think that's what it comes down to. Whoever comes out, like I said, whoever comes out and makes the best decisions in the most pressured situation is probably going to be the winner at the end of the day."
