Proteas’ Brits reaping the rewards
Cape Times
|September 19, 2025
FORMER England Men’s coach Andy Flower often said that playing spin is all in the head but it’s not brain surgery.

Or for that matter the Proteas’ Women’s team.

Brits learnt her cricket in Potchefstroom where the surfaces resemble billiard tables that allowed her to play through the line against the seam bowlers.
