Ashwin FerroMelbourne: Hashim Amla’s brilliant batting ability is often camouflaged in one-day cricket due to the presence of two big bashers in the South African team — skipper AB de Villiers and David Miller.

However, Amla could play a significant role in this edition of the World Cup as the Proteas look to eradicate the chokers tag once again.

Fine form
Thankfully, for them, he is in fine form too with two centuries (153 & 133 at Johannesburg & Centurion on January 18 and 28 respectively) and two half-centuries (66 & 61 at Durban & East London on January 16 & 21 respectively) in his last five ODIs against West Indies recently.
