The Cricket South Africa has named Quinton de Kock as their Test captain.

De Kock is already the team’s captain in the limited overs format and he will now captain the longest format of the game as well.

He will captain the team for 2020/21 schedule before the selectors could find the permanent captain for the format.

During this time, South Africa will play 7 Test matches. Two against Sri Lanka, two against Pakistan and three against Australia.

Speaking about Quinton’s appointment as Test captain, chief selector, Victor Mpitsang is confident that the wicketkeeper will perfectly essay the role of a leader.

“We are satisfied, as the national selection panel, with the decision that we have made to ensure continuity within the team, while we work towards making the best decision for its future without the pressure of time constraints,” said chief selector Mpitsang as quoted by Sports 24

“Quinton is happy to continue in the role for the next season and is comfortable with the balance of the workload and we back him fully as a captain. We are also pleased with the leadership group in the team and are cultivating a strong individual leadership culture at the same time, so that the team produces a sustainable stream of potential captains for the future,” he added.
