Proteas picking up

A good performance from World Cup hosts South Africa is just around the corner, according to their coach Eric Simons.
The South African squad are in Durban to prepare for their Pool B match against Sri Lanka on Monday, a game they must win if they are to progress to the Super Six stage.
South Africa have looked tentative and nervous in the first three weeks of the tournament, losing to West Indies and New Zealand and on Thursday failing to dismiss a dogged Canadian side in a distinctly unconvincing victory.
However, Simons says the players are determined to turn their fortunes around at Kingsmead on Monday.
"Lance Klusener said that if you could choose a venue to play Sri Lanka anywhere in the world it would be Kingsmead, so we want to take that positive and build on it," Simons told reporters at the team hotel on Friday.
"Nothing unites the guys better than having their backs to the wall.
There is a sense in the team that a really good performance is just around the corner."
The area in which South Africa really let themselves down against the Canadians was in their fielding as five catches were spilled.
The performance prompted further speculation over how much the South Africans were missing fielding ace and team talisman Jonty Rhodes, who was axed from the squad less than a week into the tournament after breaking a bone in his hand during the victory over Kenya.
Simons admitted that South Africa were keen to tidy up their fielding.
"We had a long meeting and one of the challenges we set ourselves was to pick up in the fielding department. It wasn't so much the dropped catches the guys feel more that there wasn't that 'spark'.
"Everyone has to pick up in that department so that we can pick up in the batting and bowling departments as well," Simons said. The South African coach also singled out Sri Lankan left-arm seamer Chaminda Vaas as a key threat to his side's hopes. The hosts have flown in Western Province left-arm seamer Charl Willoughby as a net bowler over the weekend in a bid to prepare themselves for challenge Vaas will pose.
Vaas is in tremendous form, taking a hat-trick with the first three balls of the match against Bangladesh and is the tournament's top wicket-taker.
"He (Vaas) is a key factor. He's done exceptionally well in the tournament.
"We haven't faced someone who swings the ball like he does so it's good to get someone like Charl to come in and prepare us. (Muttiah) Muralitharan is obviously a threat as well but we want to prepare ourselves as well as possible," Simons said.
