Stumps, Day 2! 🇿🇦
An eventful three sessions at YesPlay Newlands as Australia close out the day on 330/4 after 90 overs, and now leading by 1 run. 🏏
It’s all to play for tomorrow on Moving Day, with Australia set to resume their first innings at 10:30 as #TheProteas look to turn the tide in this game! 💪

South Africa is one of the most religious-tolerant countries in the world.
We celebrate Eid and Divali and Yom Kippur just like we celebrate Good Friday and Christmas. They are all moments where there’s good vibes in SA, even for atheists.
The campaign to divide us will fail.

It was a pleasure meeting with South Africa's Ambassador to the United States, H.E. Mr Roelf Meyer, following our September visit to Washington, D.C.
We discussed trade, investment, tourism and innovation, all areas where the United States is a key partner for the Western Cape, and how stronger ties can drive economic growth in our province and across South Africa.
The Western Cape Government will keep building international partnerships that attract investment and create jobs for our residents.

How cricket is trying to be a vehicle for change, helping keep kids away from social evils of gangs, guns and drugs in one of SA’s poorest towns. #SAvAUS
