A stylish left-handed top order batsman, Rilee Rossouw decided to sign the Kolpak deal with Hampshire in 2017, thus ending his international stint with South African cricket team.
He first came to attention in the 2008 domestic season with the Eagles. The southpaw amassed 765 runs, including three centuries to his name. A season later, Rossouw bettered his tally and scored more than 1,000 runs at an average of 66.
He was rewarded with a place in the South African A squad to tour Bangladesh in 2010, and in the next three years, the left hander struggled to break into the South African white-ball team.
Rossouw earned an IPL contract with the Royal Challengers Bangalore side in 2014. The team was filled with superstars and Rossouw got limited opportunities to showcase his talent.
He finally got his maiden South African callup in an ODI game against Zimbabwe in 2014. The Bloemfontein born had a horrendous start to his international career, registering four ducks in his first six innings.
A stylish top-order player with an elegant and authoritative drive, Rilee Rossouw has been a high-impact batter for South Africa in limited-overs cricket.
