SA vs England: All the ODI Series averages
Proteas opener Quinton de Kock was the top run-scorer for his side in the five match One Day International (ODI) series against England which ended at Newlands, in Cape Town, on Sunday.
De Kock scored two centuries in his five knocks with a career best 138 unbeaten in the first ODI in Bloemfontein in a losing cause. His 326 runs came at an average of 81 and a strike-rate of 106 as the Proteas came from 2-0 down to win the series 3-2 in the final match.
Next on the list was Proteas captain AB de Villiers who scored a match-winning 101 not out in the fifth match to help his side over the line. In total, De Villiers compiled 218 runs at an average of 72 with a strike-rate of 96 in the series.
The top run-scorer on either side, however, was England’s Alex Hales with 383 runs. Hales passed 50 each time he batted with four half-centuries and a ton. Hales was the outstanding England batsman throughout the series, and in the fifth game he made 112, out of a meagre England total of 236.
Like in the Test series, Proteas 20-year-old fast bowler Kagiso Rabada was the leading wicket-taker for his team. Rabada claimed nine wickets at an average of 19.88 at a cost of 4.73 runs per over – also making him the most economical bowler in the series.
Again, England did manage to boast the top player in the charts with Reece Topley claiming 10 wickets. His average, however, was higher than Rabada’s at 21.9 as he went at 6.08 per over.
