NEW DELHI: South Africa's quest to secure their maiden major cricket title may hinge on their ability to finally overcome the dreaded "chokers" label. Their latest test of resolve will come against Afghanistan in the Twenty20 World Cup semi-final at the Brian Lara Stadium in Tarouba, Trinidad on Thursday.
The Proteas have reached seven semi-finals across both short format World Cups, but have never progressed to a championship match. However, they will be relieved to avoid facing Australia this time, having suffered defeats to them in three of the last four encounters.
