Coach Baakier Abrahams: South Africa women’s batting coach Baakier Abrahams has lauded the side’s approach and mental discipline with the bat, as the visitors prepare to seal a series win over Pakistan at the Gaddafi Stadium here on Monday.

With the women’s ODI World Cup on the horizon, South Africa head into Monday’s game with an unassailable 2-0 lead - securing an eight-wicket win in the opener and a 25-run victory in the second ODI via DLS method.

Both wins have been dominated by batting performances, including four centuries - two from Tazmin Brits, and one each from captain Laura Wolvaardt and Marizanne Kapp. "That's one thing you've got to commend the ladies about in terms of just their growth mindset and their hunger to want to get better, coupled with the skill development.”
