Top Batter South Africa
Dewald Brevis is the top batter for South Africa in the T20i format this year. He has collected 340 runs in 10 matches at an average of 42.50 and a strike rate of 197.67. Quinton de Kock is making his return to T20i cricket, and that will also give South Africa a huge boost.
We expect Quinton de Kock to be a safe bet and Tony de Zorzi to be a risky bet.

Top Bowler Pakistan
Haris Rauf and Mohammad Nawaz are the top bowlers for Pakistan in the T20i format this year. Out of the two, Haris Rauf is the leading wicket-taker for the team with 23 wickets in 15 matches at an economy of 9.10. Mohammad Nawaz is following him with 22 wickets in 18 matches at an economy of 6.67.
I will pick a safe bet with Haris Rauf, but Usman Tariq will be the risky bet.

Top Bowler South Africa
For South Africa, Lungi Ngidi, Lizaad Williams, and Nandre Burger are part of the team. All three of the players are key bowlers for the team, considering the experience, Lungi Ngidi will be expected to be the top bowler.
We suggest that Lungi Ngidi will be the safest bet, and Nqaba Peter will be a risky bet.
