In 90% of their matches, I see this
36y / o Lady Sophie guessing her team on her shoulders. All other women fail horribly. Although she at least had the T20 WC in her hands recently. This WC is probably his last and his team fails miserably!# WCWC2025– Stan_77 & _18💎 (@ stanend2003) October 6, 2025

He looked incredibly disturbing after the disastrous demonstration against England. He gave the end of the vibrations of the cycle. But our women had other plans. Stoic character to bounce in incredible way. Mlaba was excellent with Ball and it was the class of the British and Luus# CWC2025
