Heinrich Klaasen (born 30 July 1991) is a South African cricketer who plays for the South African national cricket team[1] in limited overs cricket. He was included in the Northerns cricket team for the 2015 Africa T20 Cup.[2] In February 2021, Klaasen captained South Africa for the first time in a T20I match.[3] On 21 March 2023, in a match against West Indies, Klaasen scored his second ODI century in 54 balls. Renowned for his adept power-hitting capabilities, he demonstrates proficiency as a wicketkeeper, coupled with exceptional prowess as a finisher within the contemporary cricketing landscape. His remarkable statistics against slow bowling, where he maintained a striking rate of 191 and achieved an average of 132 against spin during the 2023 IPL, have established him as a coveted asset for T20 franchises.
