Proteas women need to adapt quicker

THE Proteas Women will have to learn how to adapt quicker to the conditions if they want to level the series against West Indies in Barbados, veteran all-rounder Marizanne Kapp said.

The 35-year-old, one of the team's most decorated players, joined the Proteas squad after missing the Tri-Series tournament in Sri Lanka last month.

During the series last month, the Proteas Women kicked off the tour in a similar fashion, losing the first game.

Only this time, they do not have multiple opportunities at redemption.

If the Proteas lose the next ODI today, they lose the series 2-0. All three ODI's will be played at the 3w’s Oval in Barbados.

Kapp said they were surprised at how good the batting conditions were and may have made it seem a little “worse than it was” with their innings.
