7. OMFG - hug this up Muskrat

Sat Jun 14, 2025, 07:49 AM

Saturday

South Africa finally has a global trophy
They just won the World Test Champion’s Trophy at Lords
Led by Aiden Markram (136) and RSAs first black captain, Temba Bavuma (66) South Africa finally did not choke.

A Magnificent win - an historic day in South African sport.
Great match Australia. A stunning upset that I saw coming months ago.
The scenes at Lords are amazing.
Eff the racists. Bavuma, Rabada, Markram - the three stars here.
