In an era where women's cricket continues to grow, Proteas Women's star Annerie Dercksen's tale emerges as a beacon of ambition, reflection, and opportunity.
As the ICC Emerging Player of the Year prepares to take on India and Sri Lanka in the extreme heat and humidity of Colombo over the next few weeks, the 24-year-old has taken time off her busy schedule to chat exclusively to the INDY SPORT SHOW this week.
Dercksen goes into detail how she is adapting from the tranquillity of farm life back home in Beaufort West to living out of a suitcase from hotel to hotel as an international cricketer.
She also speaks about how she has embraced 'life on tour', with Dercksen not afraid to sample the local cuisine, even if the Indian curries may be on the spicy side for her some times.
