The South African Cricket Team is one of the highest rating teams in the world, comaprable to teams like Australia, England, India and Pakistan. As the ICC banned South Africa from international cricket indefinitely in 1970, the team couldn't participate in the ICC World Cups from 1975 to 1987. South Africa played its first world cup match in the ICC Cricket World Cup 1992, and reached up to semi-finals. They reached up to quarter-finals of the world cup in 1996, and semi-finals in 1999.
South Africa is placed in Group A of the ICC World Cup 2007 groupings, along with Australia, Scotland and the Netherlands. South Africa will play its first warm-up match against Canada on March 05, 2007 at the Brian Lara Stadium in Trinidad, and will start its world cup campaign against the Netherlands on March 16 at Warner Park Stadium in St. Kitts & Nevis.
