BONANG TAKES JAB AT KAIZER CHIEFS
This includes media personality Bonang Matheba who showed her support for the South African cricket team as they compete at the tournament in India.

“… entering my cricket era ke sana,” Bonang wrote.

 

 

 

 

However, the award-winning presenter’s followers were not as confident in the Proteas as they were in the Springs as one X users gave Bonang “a little warning” saying the cricket team will break her heart.

In response, Bonang said she’s not afraid of heart break because Kaizer Chiefs, the DStv Premiership club she supports, breaks her heart often

“I’m a Kaizer Chiefs supporter. Immune to pain…. But thank you my love,” she wrote.

Amakhosi, who recently parted ways with their head coach Molefe Ntseki, have not won silverware in almost nine years. The Soweto Giants have since appointed former SuperSport United and Platinum Stars coach Cavin Johnson as their interim coach.

PROTEAS ‘CHOKERS’ TAG
The Proteas have a history of starting well at World Cup tournaments, both in the 50-over and 20-over formats, only to “choke” in high-pressure games.

The chokers tag has been following the Proteas since their return to international cricket more than a decade ago. In their eight World Cup appearances, South Africa have made four semi-finals but never the championship match. The only World Cup title won to date is an under-19 World Cup.

Before the World Cup, Proteas captain Themba Bavuma said: “As a South African team, we know we’re going to have that chip on our block, or that narrative that we have to get over.

“That’s always going to be there until we win a trophy.”
