Keshav Maharaj is making it clear: the youth in the South African squad isn’t a ticket to throw in the towel. With the T20I series against New Zealand sitting at 2-1 in favour of the Black Caps, the Proteas are feeling the heat,especially with key names missing from the line-up.

Maharaj knows they’re green, but he’s not having any of that ‘inexperience’ chat. "We are learning on the go, but we must step up and deliver," he said, echoing the sentiment of many fans who expect more than just potential from this squad. The pressure is palpable as they look to level the series in the next match.

As the Proteas get ready to face off again, will they rise to the occasion or continue to stumble? If Maharaj and his lads can channel that youthful energy into a proper performance, they might just surprise us all. It’s now or never for this underdog outfit!
