The Standard Bank Proteas will be hoping for some Pink Day inspiration in the fourth Momentum One-Day International (ODI) against India at the Bidvest Wanderers Stadium on Saturday. The Proteas have yet to lose an ODI in pink – they have won seven out of seven – which should serve as extra inspiration with the series on the line. The Pink ODI has become a standout feature on the cricketing calendar, with the players, stakeholders and fans playing their part in raising funds towards fighting breast cancer. This year, the Breast Care Clinic at the Charlotte Maxeke Academic Hospital in Johannesburg is the new beneficiary, with all funds raised on the day going towards the facility. Proteas all-rounder, Chris Morris, says the day is special for all the players involved, and has given them extra motivation to preserve their unbeaten record. AB de Villiers has recovered from a finger injury and returns to inject experience and temperament to the middle order. Morris says De Villiers’ experience on and off the field will be invaluable ahead of the match, along with sharing important tips on how to counter India’s spin threat.
