Quotes When I was younger, I didn’t think that I would play for SA one day. I just loved playing with the boys and how the vibe was and how they enjoyed their cricket, how they laughed. I think because of that, I fell in love with cricket and my brothers also used to encourage me to keep working, I still can’t believe it even now. More than anything I think that it is an honour and a privilege to play for this badge (points at the Proteas badge) and I cannot trade it with anything Tumi Sekhukhune on a Rise for Proteas Women, Dec 2019,GS Sport by Kass Naidoo I faced a lot of obstacles but what actually stood out for me was to fall in love with the process If you fall I love with the process and remain passionate in everything you do, that’s going to make you succeed at the end of the day. Stay focused and follow your passion Tumi Sekhukhune’s Star continues to rise, August 2019, Cricket Fanatics by Khalid Mohidin The experience with North West and now Gauteng Lions has only strengthened my resolve to make a mark in cricket. Making my debut at 19 and playing alongside my role models was a dream come true. It is a moment I will cherish forever. To be included in the squad so young and to play with those I looked up to was incredible. It is something I never take for granted It was tough to bounce back, but I knew I had to keep pushing to stay in the team. Playing in a test match was a whole new experience. The longer format demands more focus, but I embraced the challenge. Being able to represent Daveyton on the world stage means everything to me. I want to show the children back home they can achieve anything if they work hard.
