South Africa

Team South Africa were the winners of the inaugural edition of the tournament that was named as the ICC Knockout Trophy. Since then, they have failed to leave an impact on any global ICC event, let alone the Champions Trophy. This time around, skipper AB de Villiers has expressed his hunger to do well in the tournament. The squad looks fairly balanced with newcomers joining hands with the veterans. The batting looks firm on paper.

The experience of AB de Villiers, Faf du Plessis, and JP Duminy in the middle order sets up the deal for the Proteas batting lineup with Hashim Amla and Quinton de Kock being seasoned openers. The team has found two in-form all-rounders in Wayne Parnell and Chris Morris. The absence of Dale Steyn might be felt but Morne Morkel would want to reestablish his claims in the lineup. He will have the support of Kagiso Rabada, who will be fresh from his IPL stint this season.
