South Africa can win the World Cup: Pollock
JOHANNESBURG, Feb 18: Veteran all-rounder Shaun Pollock expressed confidence that South Africa could bring home the World Cup as the Proteas took over from Australia Sunday at the top of the one-day rankings.
Pollock, South Africa's outstanding performer in the recent series against Pakistan, said the Proteas had no reason to fear anyone ahead of the tournament which begins next month in the Caribbean.
“I believe we have the ability,” he told the Sunday Times. “If we get it right on the day, we have shown we can beat anyone.”
“I believe there is something special about this one. And it will be extra special for me because it will be my last World Cup,” added the 33-year-old who is currently rated number one bowler and all-rounder in ODIs.—AFP
