Kagiso Rabada - Dale Steyn
Extreme pace, the ability to swing the ball both ways, and accuracy have perhaps made Steyn the country's best ever. At his prime, Steyn had a steaming run - up, accompanied by a killer outswinger. He was almost unplayable at times. Similarly, a well-built, genuine quick like Rabada is arguably one of South Africa's best talents off late. At a mere age of 20, he announced himself to the world stage establishing himself as the leader of the South African pace attack.
Currently number one in the world Test rankings, he's been instrumental for South Africa across all formats. He also has a sound technique with the bat and looks at ease most of the times, regardless of the conditions. Scary potential!
