Quinton de Kock seizes every available opportunity to take a break from cricket to go fishing and the South African wicketkeeper did exactly that on New Year’s. De Kock’s wife Sasha de Kock’s Instagram story on December 31 showed that the couple spent some quality time on the waterside. And in the darkness, the South African ace snuck in a monster catch, in what appears to be Knysna Lagoon. Check the pictures of Quinton de Kock’s big catch –
Quinton de Kock was already set to leave the Proteas squad to be by the side of his wife Sasha, for the birth of the couple’s first child. The retirement comes hours after South Africa’s 113 runs defeat at the hands of Virat Kohli & Co at their fortress Centurion.
“This is not a decision that I have come to very easily. I have taken a lot of time to think about what my future looks like and what needs to take priority in my life now that Sasha and I are about to welcome our first child into this world and look to grow our family beyond that,” De Kock said in a statement.
Twenty-nine-year-old De Kock made his Proteas Test debut against Australia in Gqeberha in 2014. In 54 matches, he amassed 3 300 runs with a high score of 141 not-out, at an average of 38.82 and strike rate of 70.93. He also has six centuries and 22 half-centuries under his belt.
