It is turning out to be a decent clash between South Africa and defending champion Windies in their Group 1 Super 12 tie of the 2021 ICC T20 World Cup at the Dubai International Stadium on Tuesday. However, there seems to be a mild controversy regarding wicketkeeper-opener Quinton de Kock, who has marked himself unavailable for personal reasons.

De Kock had drawn attention last year when he opted to stand casually, with his hands behind his back, while CSA had given the team three options (kneel, raise a hand, or stand in attention). Speaking in his decision, de Kock had said in June this year, “My reason? I’ll keep it to myself. It’s my own personal opinion. It’s everyone’s decision; no one’s forced to do anything, not in life. That’s the way I see things.”
