WELLINGTON (Reuters) - South Africa still believe they are the best team at the World Cup despite defeats to India and Pakistan and will be out to prove it in their final pool match against United Arab Emirates, skipper AB de Villiers said on Wednesday.

Victory over the Emirates in Wellington on Thursday will secure them second place in Pool B behind India and a quarter-final meeting with Sri Lanka in Sydney on March 18.
