Quinton de Kock (born 17 December 1992) is a South African professional cricketer who plays for the Titans at domestic level and the South Africa national team.
A top-order batsman and wicket-keeper, de Kock's good form in the One-Day and Twenty20 formats led to his selection for South Africa during the 2012–13 season, and he has since played regularly for the team at both One Day International (ODI) and Twenty20 International (T20I) level. In February 2014, he also made his Test debut for South Africa, playing solely as a batsman.
By his 20th ODI match, he already scored five centuries. He became the fourth player to score three successive one-day centuries and the second player to score four ODI centuries before his 21st birthday. Quinton de Kock is widely regarded as currently the best wicket keeper batsman in the world and has received comparisons to Adam Gilchrist. In his 74th ODI, against Sri Lanka on 10 February 2017, he became the fastest player to complete 12 ODI hundreds, bettering Hashim Amla, who had achieved the landmark in 81 innings.
Before joining the Titans in 2015, de Kock played domestic cricket for Gauteng and the Highveld Lions. He has also played in the Indian Premier League (IPL) for Sunrisers Hyderabad and Delhi Daredevils.He is one of the most explosive young batsmen in the world with a knack for always scoring quick runs.
