Hashim Amla gets the nod in SA's World Cup-bound squad

“We believe that we have got our combinations right. We have selected two wrist spinners‚ two allrounders and the balance of our quick bowlers is right.”

Amla’s form of late does not inspire confidence but his selection was always going to be as close to automatic as it should be‚ given his intimidating record in the ODI format.Aiden Markram‚ leading runs scorer during the recently concluded One-Day Cup as he steered the Titans to victory‚ cracked the nod.While Quinton de Kock has been in devastating form at the top of the batting order‚ he has sorely missed a co-opener.

Dale Steyn‚ Lungi Ngidi‚ Kagiso Rabada and Noretje make up the pace attack while Tabraiz Shamsi will back up for first choice spinner Imran Tahir.

OPINION: The Hashim Amla debate - my head says yes but my heart says noThough his numbers have been poor‚ he’s still a seasoned veteran of 174 ODI matches where he has scored 7‚910 runs at a highly impressive average of 49.74. Most South African senior players only have an experience of losing at world cups.. Give youngsters a chance. At least that way if they fail again.. You give a younger player experience for a future tournament. Because oh his poor performance so we don't need him!!! Amla must go to the world cup nomakanjani. Gtfoh
