Young sensation Lhuan-dre Pretorius leads the run-scoring charts with 301 runs, while Mujeeb Ur Rahman has been a standout in the bowling department, claiming 13 wickets. However, the potential absence of key players like Joe Root, due to international duties, and captain David Miller, who suffered a groin injury, could impact their performance.
