Women Proteas must step now

As the Women Proteas begin their quest for a maiden World Cup trophy this afternoon against England in Perth, Australia, they will have only one thing on their minds – execute.The South African women have had their opportunities for glory in the past, albeit few and far between, but the same mistakes kept costing them.

Coming up against the top-ranked T20 side, the Proteas had them at 35-4 in six overs before Meg Lanning and Rachel Haynes navigated the middle overs with precision to put on an 83-run partnership. Despite this, Moreeng hopes that this shows that they can compete with the best in the world – they just need to execute consistently.“Where we are now, we have an experienced squad. What has helped mentally is our preparation, and every member in the squad knows what is coming and how to play the different conditions,” he said, while taking into account that most of the senior players have played in Australia in the Women’s Big Bash League.

So it’s still a wonder that, with the experience they boast, South Africa are still considered to be the underdogs.
