Proteas pick Amla

Sri Lanka on Thursday dumped established stars including former captain Dinesh Chandimal from their one-day team in a mass clear-out for the World Cup.
One day after announcing that Test skipper Dimuth Karunaratne would be World Cup captain in place of Lasith Malinga, selectors also axed wicketkeeper-batsman Niroshan Dickwella, off-spinner Akila Dananjaya, and openers Danushka Gunathilaka and Upul Tharanga from the 15-man squad.
Sri Lanka have been rife with personality clashes and disciplinary problems in recent years that have seen their world standing slump.
Batsman Lahiru Thirimanne, leg-spinner Jeffrey Vandersay and all-rounders Milinda Siriwardana and Jeevan Mendis got places despite not playing an ODI for more than a year.
Opening batsman Avishka Fernando and paceman Nuwan Pradeep were also included in the squad for the tournament which starts in England and Wales on May 30.
Karunaratne and the 35-year-old Mendis last played a 50-over international at the previous World Cup in 2015.
Chief selector Ashantha de Mel said players like Siriwardena, who last played an ODI in 2016, were chosen to provide stability.
"To balance the side, the batsman coming in at number six has to be able to bowl," de Mel said of Siriwardana, a left-handed batsman and bowler. Squad: Dimuth Karunaratne (capt), Lasith Malinga, Angelo Mathews, Thisara Perera, Kusal Perera, Dhananjaya de Silva, Kusal Mendis, Isuru Udana, Milinda Siriwardana, Avishka Fernando, Jeevan Mendis, Lahiru Thirimanne, Jeffrey Vandersay, Nuwan Pradeep, Suranga Lakmal.

Veteran batsman Hashim Amla was on Thursday named in South Africa's squad for the ICC World Cup in England and Wales.
Amla, 36, will be playing in his third World Cup despite a poor run of recent form.
He was selected ahead of opening batsman Reeza Hendricks, who played in 18 consecutive one-day internationals before being dropped for the country’s most recent match against Sri Lanka in March.
The 15-man squad was largely as predicted by most pundits, with Amla's form the biggest talking point ahead of the announcement.
In keeping with a recent comment by Cricket South Africa chief executive Thabang Moroe that racial quotas
would not apply for the World Cup, eight white players were selected. CSA has an official target of black players making up 55 percent of teams.
South Africa's campaign in the 2015 World Cup ended in controversy over quotas when official pressure was exerted to pick Vernon Philander for a semi-final against New Zealand despite the team management wanting to stay with the team that won a quarter-final against Sri Lanka, when Philander was injured.
Philander was picked ahead of the in-form Kyle Abbott, who subsequently signed a Kolpak contract with English county Hampshire.
"We are very happy with the squad we have been able to put together and have every confidence in their ability to do our country proud at the World Cup," said selection convener Linda Zondi.
"The final selection is also the result of a very rigorous search we have conducted, leaving no stone unturned, to make sure that we have made the best use of the options available to us.
"We feel that Fafs team is well equipped to handle whatever conditions are presented to them, bearing in mind the weather extremes one can encounter in the British Isles." Squad: Faf du Plessis (capt), Hashim Amla, Quinton de Kock (wkt), JP Dummy, Imran Tahir, Aiden Markram, David Miller, Lungi Ngidi, Anrich Nortje, Andile Phehlukwayo, Dwaine Pretorius, Kagiso Rabada, Tabraiz Shamsi, Dale Steyn, Rassie van der Dussen.
