South Africa reveal Cricket World Cup Squad
Pakistan Times Sports

JOHANNESBURG: South Africa announced a World Cup squad with no surprises Thursday, keeping the 15 players who gained a convincing series win over Pakistan.

Graeme Smith will captain a side strong in all-rounders, seam bowling and fielding but with no top-quality spin bowler.

The squad includes seven black players, meeting the World Cup target announced by Cricket South Africa chief executive Gerald Majola in February 2005.

Majola said: "We are sending a 15-man squad that will provide a formidable challenge. All these players have been involved in high level domestic or international competition and have also been part of a high performance programme since last season."

South African squad: Graeme Smith (capt), Jacques Kallis (vice-capt), Loots Bosman, Mark Boucher, AB de Villiers, Herschelle Gibbs, Andrew Hall, Justin Kemp, Charl Langeveldt, Andre Nel, Makhaya Ntini, Robin Peterson, Shaun Pollock, Ashwell Prince, Roger Telemachus. ●
