Heading into today’s sports breakdown, we’re turning our eyes to the ladies in green and gold, the South Africa Women’s Cricket Team, the Proteas Women, who have been making serious waves at the 2025 ICC Women's Cricket World Cup.

Our Sports Lead Nick Tatham broke down how the Proteas got into this position, what’s next on their journey and why this moment matters not just for women’s cricket, but for sport in South Africa as a whole.
