Women’s WC: Sometimes To Be A Champion, You've Got To Think Like One, Says SA Women Head Coach Mashimbyi
As South Africa: As South Africa gear up for their opening fixture against England in the 2025 Women’s ODI World Cup, head coach Mandla Mashimbyi has called for his team to think like champions if they are to be winners of the eight-team competition.
The 13th edition of the 50-over global showpiece event is also the first World Cup campaign for Mashimbyi, who was appointed as South Africa’s head coach in December 2024. In the run-up to the World Cup, South Africa featured in a tri-series in Sri Lanka, before playing bilateral series against the West Indies and Pakistan.
“It's been really good. The girls have really given it their all in terms of making sure that they're ready for the first game. The work that we've put in before this week has been sufficient. Just going into the first game, I think the players just have to be positive and fresh from a mindset point of view and from a physical point of view as well.
