He has got great ambitions to go all the way and be a real strong performer for the team.”South Africa's hopes will likely hinge on the remarkable batting skills demonstrated by Quinton de Kock as they are about to encounter a challenging series of matches, with upcoming games against Pakistan, New Zealand, and the host nation and tournament favorites, India.
