Johannesburg - Proteas coach Russell Domingo believes his team is "one of seven or eight" that can win the ICC World T20, despite suffering a hiding at the hands of Australia in Centurion on Friday night to lose their T20 series 2-0.
As it happened: SA v Oz - 3rd T20
The Proteas leave for Bangladesh on Saturday and play two warm-up games against Bangladesh A and Pakistan before opening their World T20 campaign against Asia Cup champions Sri Lanka on March 22.
"There are seven or eight teams that can win the T20 World Cup and we're one of them," Domingo told a press conference in Centurion after the loss to Australia by six wickets with five overs to spare.
"It's not a bad way to go into the tournament because the pressure won't be there of being one of a couple of obvious favourites.
