Mandla Mashimbyi told a press conference after the final that ” … nobody gave us a chance; we gave ourselves a chance”. So he was, publicly, anyway, satisfied: “It was a special campaign. We played some good cricket, we showed character. We were learning on the job and we showed that we were able to grow and get to the final. It wasn’t to be, but I’m really proud of these girls. A lot of good things are going to happen for this team.”
