South Africa has had terrible luck in the previous world cups, ever since they started competing again,they have always had a good side and this world cup I'd say that they are one of the favorites to win,seeing as they beat the Aussies 2-3 earlier this year.

SA is one of the top performing teams in the world as of now. Chasing a mammoth total of 434 is simply out of this world. But they have been really unlucky not to get even a single world cup final victory. I hope this time the fortune changes. I reckon that SA team will one of the toughest teams to beat in this world cup.

Yes, if and only if they quickly get adjusted with the conditions there in West Indies... this time it will be a one on one battle between Australia, South Africa and Pakistan, India....
So if proteas be able to get adjusted with the slow pitches soon they will be the most difficult opponents for all the teams....

hope luck favors them..they r good enough to play the semi finals...but they lack that instinct in the bowling department...kallis is no moore bowling like he used to..pollock has dropped miles...ntini is fine...rest r all just average...but thier batsmen can win them....smith and boucher r gonna b the key if SA goes on 2 win the cup
