South Africa wicketkeeper-batter Heinrich Klaasen hopes his match-winning effort against India in the second T20 helps him prolong his international career.
Dropped after the T20 World Cup last year, Klaasen also found himself out of the ODI side and also lost his central contract. He would not have got a look-in had Quinton de Kock not injured his wrist before the game on Sunday. The 30-year-old grabbed his chance and took the game away from India with his fiery 46-ball 81, his career-best T20 score. “It was difficult [pitch] to bat. I found myself struggling up front. Then I decided if I go out today I would rather go my way and try to be positive. It’s just one of those days that it came off,” he said at the post-match media interaction.
