5 Players who can help South Africa win the World Cup 2019

#2 Hashim Amla

Hashim Amla's experience will come in handy for Proteas in their world cup campaign.

Hashim Amla has been one of the most renowned batsmen for the South African team over the last decade. He has been a consistent run scorer for the team across all the formats and in all conditions, both home and away. Particularly in ODIs, Amla, along with his opening partner Quinton de Kock, has helped the Proteas to get off to great starts a number of times.

In his international career, he has played 174 ODI matches and scored 7910 runs at an impressive average of 49.65 which includes 27 centuries and 37 half-centuries. He also holds the record for being the fastest batsman to reach 2000, 3000, 4000, 5000, 6000 and 7000 ODI runs.

Given that Amla bats at the top, he will have the responsibility to provide his team with a solid platform at the start of the innings. Also, this might be the last World Cup appearance for him and he would be very much eager to help South Africa to their first World Cup trophy.
