South Africa announced their final 15 players squad
for the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 in Australia and New Zealand next
month.
AB de Villiers is named the captain while Hashim Amla is vice captain of the side in the tournament.
South Africa is to gamble on the fitness of Quinton de Kock and J.P. Duminy, who were named on Wednesday Jan 07,2015 in a 15-man squad for the Cricket World Cup.
Quinton De Kock, the exciting 22-year-old wicketkeeper-batsman, is only expected to recover from an ankle ligament injury in one month. He was injured in last month’s first test against West Indies and was initially ruled out of action for three months but has been undergoing intensive treatment.
J P Duminy has had persistent knee problems. He missed the three three-test series against West Indies but could play again next week. Tournament rules allow for injured players to be replaced during the World Cup.
