A double sporting extravaganza as the Springboks battle England in the Rugby World Cup, while the Proteas face the same opponents in cricket.
As the Springboks take on England in the Rugby World Cup, the Proteas also face a crucial match against England in the Cricket World Cup, making it a Super Saturday.Just two weeks short of four years ago, Siya Kolisi’s Springboks entered the International Stadium Yokohama in Japan as underdogs for the Rugby World Cup final against England.
