With their golden run over Islanders in the recently concluded three-match Test series, high spirited Indian squad landed in South Africa last week and even before playing its first Test match, they have been challenged! But no… not on the cricket ground. The challenge has been given to the Indian squad by South African Tourism. South Africa tourism has invited Virat Kohli’s boys to undertake the hair-raising Shark-cage dive in Hermanus.
“The excitement is palpable with the Men in Blue gearing up for their January-February 2018 Cricket Tour of South Africa. It is no secret that cricket, with its unmatched fandom and ever-increasing popularity is a religion in India. The nation can be seen rooting (and praying) for their favourite team. But as the recently-hitched Captain and his crew arrived in Cape Town – another challenge awaits them!” it said in an official statement.
The South Africa tourism took it to the micro-blogging site Twitter to explain the challenge and wrote, “Hey @imVKohli we’re looking forward to some nail-biting cricket. Before the on-field action begins, how about some off-beat adventure with the team! Come, seek the adrenaline rush of shark-cage diving in Hermanus. Are the Men in Blue up for the challenge?”
