Proteas Women geared up for India cauldron

PROTEAS allrounder Nadine de Klerk is hoping for a fast start against India today.

(AFP)

Drums will beat, trumpets and whistles blown, flags waved, and grown men fully painted in the tri-colours will create a cacophony of noise that the Proteas Women have yet to encounter.

Facing India, in a World Cup, at home, is simply a different beast to any other challenge, but one the Proteas are looking to embrace.

“It’s always a challenge, but I think it's also nice,” Proteas allrounder Nadine de Klerk said on the eve of this mouthwatering World Cup clash.
