South Africa’s Test team is drawing inspiration from recent successes across various sporting disciplines as they prepare for a two-Test series against New Zealand with a makeshift side. Shukri Conrad, South Africa’s Test coach, highlighted the national women’s side’s historic T20I victory over Australia, Bafana Bafana’s achievement in reaching the quarter-finals of the African Cup of Nations, and West Indies’ Test victory over Australia as sources of motivation for the team.

Inspiration from Recent Successes
Conrad emphasized the significance of the national women’s side’s victory over Australia, describing it as a “massive thing for any Proteas side.” He also expressed joy and inspiration from Bafana Bafana’s success in the African Cup of Nations and West Indies’ Test victory over Australia after 27 years.

Preparation and Confidence
South Africa’s preparation for the New Zealand series included an A series against West Indies, which they won 2-1. Conrad highlighted the team’s confidence and preparation, emphasizing that they are as well-prepared as they can be for the upcoming series. The team arrived in New Zealand two weeks before the first Test and recently completed a warm-up match, where several batters performed well, providing the team with valuable time at the crease.

Cultural Experience and Confidence
Conrad also emphasized the importance of the team experiencing the culture and life in a foreign country, highlighting their recent activities, including attending a music concert. Despite concerns and discussions surrounding the composition of the current squad, the team remains focused on their belief in causing an upset in the upcoming series.
