Beuran Hendricks is an left-arm fast medium bowler, who made a strong impact in the recently concluded Ram Slam T20 tournament 2013/14, where he emerged as the highest wicket taker by taking 28 wickets in 11 matches at an average of 10.28. He represented Cape Cobras in that tournament. He is capable of generating some serious pace and has reaped rich rewards playing for Cape Cobras and the Western Province team. He had a superb 2012/13 first class season, where he claimed 35 wickets in 7 matches and that boosted his chances of getting selected for the South African A team. He claimed a match-winning 11-wicket haul against India A in Pretoria in 2013 and there was no looking back for him as he was drafted into the national side for the T20Is against Australia in 2014. His performance in the Ram Slam tournament in 2013/14 earned him an IPL contract, where he was snapped up by Kings XI Punjab for a price of Rs 1.8 crore. Hendricks was picked for the 2014 World T20 in Bangladesh. After missing out the first two games, he was drafted in place of Morne Morkel. He picked up 4 wickets in the 3 games and was economical too, he used the variations in his arsenal to good effect. By Kiran Nataraj As of April 2014
