Kallis outlines reasons why Proteas can win T20 World Cup

Cape Town, Dec 5 (UNI) South Africa great Jacques Kallis believes next year's ICC Men's T20 World Cup is timed perfectly for his former side to claim a first title.
The 10th edition of the T20 World Cup will commence on February 7 next year and the Proteas will be aiming to go one step better than their runner-up finish behind India at the 2024 tournament.
According to the International Cricket Council (ICC), the start of the T20 World Cup is just 13 days after the completion of South Africa's domestic SA20 tournament that will feature the majority of the Proteas' white-ball stars and Kallis thinks this will help his former side be primed for the 20-over showcase.
