BAVUMA: ENOUGH TIME TO FIX THEIR ODI PROBLEMS

- Wesley Botton

Plenty of work for the Proteas

Following their inconsistent performances in the one-day international (ODI) series against Australia last week, captain Temba Bavuma admits the Proteas have plenty of work to do in the long-term build to the 2027 World Cup to be hosted by South Africa.

In the first two matches of the 50-over series Down Under, the SA team won the opening clash by 98 runs and the second game by 84 runs.

In the final match of the week-long campaign, however, they were handed a crushing 276-run defeat in what could only be described as a complete demolition.
