Proteas Women looking to erase soft dismissals, says star opener Brits
The Star
|October 17, 2025
PROTEAS Women's opening batter Tazmin Brits reiterated that the team continues their search for a near-perfect performance in the ongoing ICC Women's Cricket World Cup in India.
South Africa has had a successful campaign thus far, winning three out of four games.
However, the team has a number of areas that need serious attention, including batting collapses in the top-order, miscommunication between batters and the lack of ruthlessness in the bowling and fielding departments.
Brits revealed coach Mandla Mashimbyi's favourite phrase, "if you lose, as long as you learn", as one of the driving forces within the side as they continue their search for the perfect game.
The top-order batter revealed that there have been discussions within the team about their shortcomings as they look to put on a polished performance against Sri Lanka in Colombo on Friday.
