Haven’t followed SA much lately but like the bowling attack of Rabada, Ngidi, Steyn (experience) and Tahir 

 

If the batsmen are in form, they have some good match winners in: de Kock, Amla, Markham, etc.

 

May not dominate but good enough to squeeze into last 4 if an opportunity presents

Weakest RSA squad ever in WC history. 

 

Phelku is pretty decent actually, current Morris hasn't done much to warrant selection. I would have dropped Amla and picked young Zubayr Hamza at no 3 with Kock/Markram as openers. Amla is too limited, selfish and with a pathetic record in ICC tourneys. Zubayr wouldn't do much better/worse than Amla but at least would have gained vital experience, considering he is expected to be their mainstay in 4 years time. 

 

Anyway this looks like a middling side, not top 3 material IMO. Batting is pants. 

Amla

Kock

Markram

Du Plessis

JPD

Miller

Phehlu

Rabada

Shamsi/Steyn

Ngidi

Tahir

wkt taking bowlers are req in the middle overs ,morris avg 40 with the ball in odis ,he is like umesh .Phehlukwayo has good variations with the old ball and has taken a lot of wkts over the last year.

I think Phehul batted well in a few matches. That probably got him selected
