Reversing skills

"....so maybe they've just got really good skill in their bowlers," de Villiers said.

Is this 'skill' the knowledge how to 'work' on the ball?

Had it been Pakistan, the media and the ICC would have been down their throats by now!!

Agreed. Though I am not a defender of Pak cricket, they have produced some of the most outstanding fast bowlers consistently. It was sickening the way English media and establishment hounded them when reverse swing first came to prominence. Indeed, these blokes cheated to increase the effect of their already undeniable skill, which was foolish. However, at that time the poms thought reverse swing itself was legally impossible. Look at them now!!
