“There has been a lot of growing and hard work and none of that would have happened without the great support system that I have which includes my parents, coaches and teammates, both national and domestic.”
Luus has cemented her place in the Momentum Proteas Women’s squad that also made history when they qualified for the semi-finals of the ICC Women’s World T20 in Bangladesh. “This has been another great year of wonderful achievements for our top players,” commented CSA Chief Executive, Haroon Lorgat.
“I warmly congratulate all our winners including the likes of our umpires, grounds staff and scorers, without whose contribution the game cannot be played.
“Our domestic cricket remains blessed with great talents and congratulations to all the winners in that category.”
