KANPUR, India (Reuters) - South Africa one-day captain AB de Villiers swatted aside suggestions that India off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin could prove his nemesis in the five-match series starting in Kanpur on Sunday.

Ashwin proved his ability to outsmart a key rival batsman in August when he soured Kumar Sangakkara's farewell by dismissing the retiring Sri Lankan great in each of his last four test innings.
