The top line is Kirsten and the other figures are for Ganguly, Inzi, Yousuf... none "stonewalling" batsmen... but Kirsten near enough matches all three for both average AND strike rate.
ps. two of the first names on an all-time England ODI teamsheet would be KNight and Fairbrother: Kirsten's strike rate is near enough identical....
