BLOEMFONTEIN – Cricket SA (CSA) has congratulated the SA women’s cricket team on their 5-0 ODI Series win over Bangladesh.
SA completed the sweep when they won the final ODI by six wickets at the Mangaung Oval, in Bloemfontein, on Monday.
“Congratulations to the Momentum Proteas on a brilliant performance,” said CSA acting chief executive Thabang Moroe.
“A 5-0 series win is a magnificent effort and augurs extremely well for our forthcoming tour to England when we will play matches both against our hosts, the Women’s World Cup champions, as well as New Zealand.
Consistency has been key at the top of the order! 🙌🏽
