‘South Africa needs therapy…’ One defeat and the whole world changes! The biggest fan of African cricket told the truth?
South African Team Needs Therapist: In the first semi-final of the T20 World Cup, New Zealand achieved 9 tremendous victories, and ended South Africa’s golden journey. Even before this, the Proteas team has been out after losing in most of the big tournament knockout matches, due to which the ICC trophy often slips away from their hands. In such a situation, the question arises that why does this happen only with such a powerful team.
‘Take therapy Proteas’
According to Thanja Voor, South Africa’s most famous cricket fan and content creator, the Proteas team now needs therapy. Posting a video, he said in a sad tone, ‘People always ask me, why doesn’t the South African team win these big games? And the first thing that comes to mind is the caliber of the players we are producing year after year. There is no dearth of power, talent and great talent.
Appeal to head coach
He further said, ‘It could just be a mental block. And so I am saying to this team, I am telling Shukri (head coach), please take some other path. I don’t know if therapy is in the budget or not, I don’t know if people still consider it taboo or not, but in sport, it is very, very useful and it can change your life.

‘It is not wrong to take therapy’
Thanja said, ‘I understand that Christians think this is the work of the devil – well, if we Christians believe that God has given all of us a very special gift, then who are we to look down on those who are meant to heal our minds? When we have problems with our heart, stomach, lungs, back, we do not see anything wrong in going to the doctor, but when it comes to the brain, I don’t know, we look down on it.

gave my own example
He further said, ‘And do you know what is the reason for this? It’s because you’re scared. I myself was one of those people. I was scared for years. Well, I was unemployed for six years, didn’t earn any money. Started this cricket page, okay, didn’t make any money for 18 months. Followers were growing, nothing was happening, and then I went to therapy and within a month everything started changing for me. Opportunities came up because why? I threw myself into the ring. I was going to fight for my mental health, to become the best version of myself. Please. How can we fight the demons that clearly exist within the Proteas’ realm?’
Emotional message at the end
Thanja finally said, ‘Take this responsibility upon yourself, especially the young players, to take us to future glory. Talking about New Zealand, you bowled better than us, you batted better than us. Tim Seifert, Finn Allen – Awesome. Bowling, tactics, everything was just tremendous. So good luck to you guys, good luck to India, good luck to England. May the best team win. And South Africa, of course I am hurt, of course I am devastated. But I will be back, like I always do. I will always and always be a Proteas.
