South Africa wants to break the world cup Cricket - South Africa cricket team Details

Cricket News Form New Delhi: Details About south Africa cricket- Ever since South Africa's first appearance at the World Cup in 1992, the tournament has consistently brought heartbreaks for the rainbow nation. And because of their unfortunate knack of losing from winning positions, they have also been historically tagged as 'chokers'.The rain-affected semifinal loss in 1992 was followed by an unlikely quarterfinal exit against the West Indies four years later. The drama of the Lance Klusener-Allan Donald run-out put their chances in 1999 to rest and 2003 saw the South Africans crash out early on their home turf.This time it's no different for the green-clad Proteas. Ranked No. 3 in the ICC ODI rankings, South Africa are one of the hot favourites to win the cup but that's when they choke and ultimately succumb to the pressure of expectations.

But Graeme Smith, who will lead the team for the last time in ODIs after giving up the T20 captaincy earlier, has the machinery that can churn out consistent wins for the team.South Africa's top order looks absolutely brilliant with the likes of Graeme Smith, Jacques Kallis and Hashim Amla in superb one-day form and dependable AB de Villiers will be raring to go in the mega event. If South Africa are to be successful in India, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, they will need solid performances from these specialists .These four batsman have the pedigree to post the big scores that are likely to be necessary in the subcontinent. Coming in the tournament after an ODI series win at home against India, Proteas will be high on confidence and will surely give every opponent a run for its money.
