The only aspects that might frustrate their relationship are Jada's Mars in Aquarius square Will's Moon in Scorpio, and Will's Saturn square Jada's Mars. Moreover, the Sun and Jupiter in both charts are in soft mutual aspects, and their Moons are in sextile. Will's Jupiter is in conjunction with Jada's Moon. Indeed, Will's Sun-Uranus conjunction is found on Jada's stellium comprising the Sun, Pluto, and Venus. In the case of this couple, compatibility ratings are very high. In late 2021, de Kock announced a shock retirement from Tests, becoming another in a growing list of top all-format players seeking to concentrate on the white-ball formats.Whenever times of birth are unknown, the synastry analysis gives mere compatibility indications. Elsewhere in T20, he was a key part of the Mumbai Indians side that won two IPL titles on the trot at the tail end of the 2010s, opening their batting and keeping. He also hit his stride in the shortest format, scoring his maiden half-century in the T20 World Cup that year, in which he was South Africa's most successful batter.
His first Test hundred came against England in Centurion in 2016, and he followed that up with one against Australia three matches later in Adelaide, in a series South Africa won 2-1.
Then came the three in a row against India, followed by his Test debut early in 2014.Īn ankle injury threatened to put de Kock out of the 2015 World Cup, but he recovered quickly - if only to struggle through that tournament and a series against Bangladesh, after which he was dropped and spent some productive time in the A team. He also finished fourth in the first-class rankings in the 2012-13 season.Īfter a bit of a false start to his international career - he didn't do much against New Zealand and Sri Lanka in 20 - he scored his first ODI hundred against Pakistan later that year. Later that year he caught the national selectors' eyes when he starred in a match-winning partnership with McKenzie in the Champions League T20 against Mumbai Indians. He also topped the batting charts for South Africa in the 2012 junior World Cup in Australia. He attended King Edward VII High School, the alma mater of Graeme Smith and Neil McKenzie, and was picked for the South African U-19 side, which he captained briefly. A year later, he had established himself in all three formats for South Africa.ĭe Kock grew up as a baseball player and even considered a move to the United States, but his father convinced him to pursue cricket instead. By 21, he shared the record for the most successive ODI centuries - three - before it was bettered by Kumar Sangakkara. Quinton de Kock's fearless striking and handy glovework earned him comparisons to greats of the game like Adam Gilchrist and Mark Boucher early in his career.
