Top 5 T20I Debutants in 2018

#3 Heinrich Klaasen

Heinrich Klaasen

Heinrich Klaasen drew the attention of the cricket fans by playing a match-winning innings against India in the bilateral ODI series. This innings helped Klaasen secure a place in the South African T20I squad and also earn himself a maiden IPL contract. The wicket-keeper batsman has represented the rainbow nation in 6 T20Is, where he averages 24.00 with the bat.

However, Klaasen scores runs at a very quick rate and has taken only 85 balls to score his 144 runs in 2018. Playing as the team's wicket-keeper, Heinrich has taken 6 catches behind the wickets. He will be seen playing for the Rajasthan Royals in the 2019 edition of the IPL and with talks of the league being held in South Africa, expect him to shine for the Royals.

Matches: 6, Runs: 144, Strike-rate: 169.41, Highest Score: 69, Catches: 6
