No Cricket World Cup starts with South Africa not being asked about their famed inability to cope with pressure at the sticky end of the tournament.
And there isn’t a tournament that’s brought the worst out of the Proteas quite like the T20 World Cup.
They meet Sri Lanka in their Group D clash at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York on Monday (16:30 SA time) in not only bad form, but the weight of expectation that circles every global showpiece.
