de Kock set to miss part of India Tests: Report

South Africa wicketkeeper-batter Quinton de Kock is expected to at least miss the third Test against India as he awaits the birth of his first child. As per a report in ESPNcricinfo, de Kock’s wife Sasha is expected to give birth in early January and this could rule the wicketkeeper out of the second and third Tests against India.

Last week, Cricket South Africa (CSA) had announced a 21-strong, Proteas Test squad that will take on India in three Tests from December 26 to January 15. The series will form part of the new cycle of the ICC World Test Championship and will be hosted in three venues namely; SuperSport Park, Wanderers, and Newlands respectively. The National Selection Panel has gone with the same core group that successfully toured the West Indies in June of this year and has included three others.
