Sinalo Jafta has achieved incredible highs as one of the best cricketers in the world, and what makes her story even more compelling is how she managed to also overcome addiction.

Living one day at a time towards success

On October 12, 2022, Jafta checked herself into an alcohol rehabilitation facility in the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands. At the time, the then 27-year-old could have been forgiven for thinking her career with the Proteas women’s team was over.

Fast forward to 2025, and Jafta is coming to three years sober and has firmly entrenched herself as one of the stalwarts of the South African team.

Since making her debut for South Africa in 2016, Jafta has gone on to earn 95 caps across all three formats as she forms a vital cog of a powerful Proteas lineup.
