Unfortunately, the pull of franchise cricket is real. A talented player like Quinton de Kock in such form will not be a part of the next World Cup in his home country.
It's just sad. I hope international cricket stays relevant.

Quinton de Kock’s pick-up short-arm hook of the fast bowlers, the one he played off Pat Cummins to get to his hundred here is such a trademark & will be sorely missed in ODI cricket post this farewell tour #CWC23
