'What has possibly changed for me since I started playing for the national team is my thinking towards the game.'
Sipamla‚ who was first called up to the Proteas’ T20 squad for the series against Pakistan at the beginning of the year and has since played three matches in the format‚ said working with coach Ottis Gibson and his team has been invaluable.
Sipamla was part of the nail-biting match on Tuesday where Proteas beat Sri Lanka in the super over to take a 1-0 lead in this series‚ and he was in awe at how senior players like skipper Faf du Plessis‚ David Miller and Imran Tahir held their nerve. “It was very exciting getting into a very good game played by both teams and I enjoyed being part of it.”
“So‚ I am not thinking about the World Cup at all – whatever happens in the future will happen but at the moment my mind is these next two matches in this series. He said SA will approach Friday’s match at SuperSport Park with the same intensity as they did in Cape Town to avoid going to the last game in Johannesburg on Sunday having to win.
