South African cricket fans Shannon and Taz are currently in India to watch World Cup games and expect their country to win the ICC trophy. At the same time, they are planning to explore southern India.

Taz is a keen cricket follower and she reckons that the Proteas deserve to win the Cup. “These South Africans are a totally different team as there are no expectations of them. Quinton de Kock is playing really well, but the entire SA batting line-up is consistent in this tournament. I think they have a good chance,” Taz told mid-day on Friday. She added: “I love skipper Temba Bavuma. I know he has a lot of critics and I think the SA public has been a little harsh on him. Maybe, it’s similar to India’s Virat Kohli. Bavuma is a fantastic player, but the burden of captaincy is affecting his game.”
