Team South Africa

Key Players Graeme Smith, AB de Villiers, JP Duminy, Mark Boucher, Herschelle Gibbs, Roelof van der Merwe, Dale Steyn

Past performances and expectations

ICC World Cup Semi-finalists in 1992, 1999, 2007

Despite being a very good team consistently, South Africans have not won a world cup title. They are known to be “chokers”. They came close to beating Australia in World Cup (ODI) 2007. They were eliminated in the previous T20 World Cup on a net run-rate. But they have everything it takes to be the champions of World T20. They have superb in-form players like Duminy, de Villiers, van der Merwe, and Gibbs. Smith, despite having an ordinary outing in IPL 2009, is no push-over either. South Africa is one of the favorites to lift the T20 World Cup title.
