While the left-handed batsman said that Rohit is returning to his best, he still did not give a definite timeline on his return. “He’s doing really well, seen him getting back into the swing of things, don’t ask me when he’s going to be ready because I have no clue about. Looks like he’s doing really well and having a speedy recovery,” De Kock said.

Speaking on his good form in the season, the South Africa batsman said: “I am not actually too sure, it’s a matter of finding rhythm, momentum, that’s what has helped me so far. I can never put a total finger on it for everyone, that’s just the way I see it and just capitalizing on it as I can. “

“From a player’s personal point of view, we have a lot of individuals in our team that set a high standard for themselves which is key to our team. We try to keep the standards as high as possible,” Quinton de Kock added.
