South Africa must look to emulate England as they look to rebuild their squad and change their one-day international mentality following a premature exit from the World Cup, former all-rounder Jacques Kallis said.
Jacques Kallis reflects on the disappointment of being knocked out of the World Cup after having had such high hopes.
Jacques Kallis is wary of South Africa's quarter-final opponents, saying New Zealand has great team spirit and never give up.
Though South Africa are favourites to beat Bangladesh, Jacques Kallis says the Proteas are under no illusions about how difficult it is to win in Dhaka.
If South Africa was able to restrict India to under 300, it was mainly due to the bowling of Dale Steyn, says Jacques Kallis.
South Africa all-rounder JACQUES KALLIS says a packed VCA Stadium will bring out the best in the Proteas when they take on India in a crunch Group B match on Saturday.
England defending 170 against South Africa was, says Jacques Kallis, another tremendous and exciting game of cricket.
South African ace Jacques Kallis says upsets are caused by the favourites losing concentration rather than the underdogs outplaying them.
There are too many preconceptions about subcontinental conditions, says Jacques Kallis. 'Good cricketers, whatever their specialist skill, can succeed.'
More significant than the individual, match-winning efforts of Imran Tahir, AB de Villiers and Dale Steyn, was South Africa's selection of three frontline spinners in the match against the West Indies, says Jacques Kallis.
Jacques Kallis says South Africa have a miserly off-spinner, a nagging and experienced left armer and a wicket-taking leg spinner in Imran Tahir.
South Africa all-rounder Jacques Kallis, who will be playing his fifth World Cup, says and he'll be doing everything to help the 11 first-timers in his squad to relax and enjoy the occasion.
