Steyn sets sights on World Cup

Dale Steyn is determined to be part of South Africa's squad for the T20 World Cup in Australia in October and November after switching his focus from Test cricket to the shortest form of the game.

South Africa's all-time leading Test wicket-taker will be 37 by the time the global showpiece starts and has not played international cricket since last March.

But he said on Tuesday he was looking forward to his comeback in the first Twenty20 international against England at Buffalo Park on Wednesday.

"I love playing cricket," he said.

"I wake up every day and I can't see myself doing anything else right now."
"As long as that drive is still there to play at the highest level, to get batters out, fox them and outsmart them and that kind of stuff, if I can do that I'm going to continue to do that."
"After that it will be the Proteas and I will give it everything I've got until the World Cup."
"If you're playing Test cricket you could bowl 20 overs in a day. I could play about five T20s in that space."
The requirements for T20 cricket were different, "but guys need to know that it's still there and that you can bowl a 90 miles an hour bouncer or yorker."
"I want to stand at mid-off and say, 'what are you thinking, what ball are you thinking of bowling?'."
