'Smriti Always Scores Truckload Of Runs Against Us, It'd Be Nice To Keep Her Quiet: SA Allrounder Dercksen
ICC Emerging Player: Annerie Dercksen speaks with an ease that belies the steeliness in the South African seam-bowling allrounder. In the last few years, Annerie has gone from a fresh face to a regular figure, including winning the ICC Emerging Player of the Year award in 2024 and being a vital figure in the Proteas run to the T20 World Cup final.
Now, as South Africa take on India in a five-match T20I series starting in Durban on Friday, Annerie’s dual role will be under sharper focus. For the Proteas, back home after a difficult tour of New Zealand, the series doubles as a high-stakes rehearsal for the T20 World Cup in England.
With memories of defeat to India in the 2025 ODI World Cup final still raw, Annerie, who’s played two Tests, 24 ODIs and 31 T20Is, feels a rivalry is brewing between the tourists and hosts. “It's awesome to be back home and see our people again after quite a long time away in New Zealand. But we know that India obviously poses a big threat to us. We still remember that (ODI) World Cup not too long ago, although it's a different format.
