We've shown character to get to semis, says Proteas Women’s star Luus
The Star
|October 20, 2025
SUNE Luus believes the “momentum” is with the Proteas after qualifying for the ICC Women’s World Cup semifinal with two games to spare.
It will be the Proteas’ third consecutive World Cup semifinal after reaching the knockout stages both in 2017 and 2022. Laura Wolvaardt’s team are among the most consistent major tournament contenders after also progressing to the last two ICC T20 World Cup finals.
“Yeah, it's exceptional. I think, you know, the team has shown their character in the last couple of games,” said former captain Luus. “I think how we started was not ideal, but to have four wins in a row after that playing good cricket, I think it's definitely put the momentum on our side.”
The Proteas still have two matches remaining against Pakistan in Colombo tomorrow before returning to India to face defending champions Australia next Saturday in Indore.
