“He is one of the best players. No one can do what he can. Yes, he is short of runs, but his form will return at the right time. He can blast out the opposition any moment,” Dube said.

Meanwhile, South Africa would hope to put up a much better batting performance after getting bowled out for just 117 in the last match at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium.
