Cape Town – There will be no South Africans participating for this year’s fund-raising Twenty20 International, which sees the ICC World XI take on the West Indies.
In September last year, five Proteas played in a T20 match between the ICC World XI and Pakistan in Lahore, with Faf du Plessis leading the World squad.
However, this year the ICC World XI will be led by England T20I skipper Eoin Morgan and will take place at Lord’s on May 31.
The fixture has been given international status by the ICC, with the proceeds set to go towards the restoration and renovation of five venues in the Caribbean – Ronald Webster Park in Anguilla, Sir Viv Richards Stadium in Antigua, Windsor Park Stadium in Dominica, A.O. Shirley Recreation Ground in BVI and Lumber Ball Park in St Maarten – that were damaged by Hurricanes Irma and Maria to varying degrees late last year.
“It’s a great honour to be leading a side which has a selection of players from a number of nations, and I can’t wait to get on to the field for what promises to be an engrossing contest,” said Morgan.
“The build-up to the event on 31st May has been very exciting with new additions announced on a regular basis, and the anticipation has been growing daily.
“I’m sure all the players, including those of the Windies side, are eager to play at Lord’s. It’s a fantastic feeling that we will be all getting together for a good cause. The cricket fraternity should be very proud that the funds raised from the match will help rebuild the stadia in the Caribbean and also contribute to the growth of the game.”
The Windies, the reigning ICC World T20 champions, will be led by Carlos Brathwaite, with the side full of big-ticket T20 stars like Chris Gayle, Marlon Samuels, Samuel Badree and Andre Russell.
World XI squad:
Eoin Morgan (captain – England), Dinesh Karthik (wk – India), Mitchell McClenaghan (Australia), Hardik Pandya (India), Thisara Perera (Sri Lanka), Rashid Khan (Afghanistan), Luke Ronchi (wk – New Zealand), Shahid Afridi (Pakistan), Shoaib Malik (Pakistan), Shakib Al Hasan (Bangladesh), Tamim Iqbal (Bangladesh)
The inter-ministerial committee (IMC) appointed by Cabinet to deal with the health crisis in the North West, has lambasted the media for allegedly publishing misleading reports.
IMC spokesperson Phumla Williams said that, contrary to media reports, the provincial executive in the province was co-operating with the technical task team.
“The media reports are not only misleading, but also far from the actual experience of the IMC. The IMC would like to place it on the record that the IMC as well as the Technical Task Team of senior officials have received nothing but co-operation from the provincial executive, led by Premier Supra Mahumapelo.”
Williams’ statement does not indicate which media house she is referring to.
Ongoing protests calling for Mahumapelo to step down have exacerbated the situation at hospitals and clinics, where National Health Education and Allied Workers’ Union (Nehawu) members have been striking for more than two months.
The SA National Defence Force (SANDF) had to be brought in last week to assist. This followed the deployment of the South African Military Health Service (SAMHS) on April 20.
Williams said the IMC intervention was not intended to sow any divisions.
“It is an intervention that is intended to assist the province, as mandated by Cabinet. The IMC is working hard on the ground to ensure that it reports back to Cabinet within the stipulated timelines.”
Williams said the reports were regrettable because they were published “without any verification with the chairperson of the IMC or the IMC spokesperson”.
“We hope the publication concerned will take the necessary corrective actions to ensure that a similar misrepresentation is not allowed to happen again.”
HARARE – Former Zimbabwe president Robert Mugabe will not appear before a parliament committee this week to answer questions on multi-billion-dollar corruption in the diamond industry after the hearing was postponed, a lawmaker said on Monday.
The 94-year-old Mugabe had been summoned to appear before the mines and energy committee on Wednesday.
But the member of parliament who is leading the inquiry said the hearing had been postponed to a date yet to be decided by the clerk of parliament.
The lawmakers plan to question Mugabe over his 2016 claim that the country had lost $15-billion (R188-billion) due to corruption and foreign exploitation in the diamond sector.
The committee has already interviewed former ministers, police and intelligence chiefs to answer on diamond mining operations at the vast Chiadzwa gem fields.
Mugabe ruled Zimbabwe from 1980 until he was ousted last year after the military took over briefly and his once-loyal Zanu PF party turned against him.
Zimbabwe discovered alluvial diamonds in Chiadzwa, in the east of the country, over 10 years ago, and rights groups have accused security forces of using brutal methods to control the scattered deposits.
Rights groups say over 200 people were killed during operations to remove illegal panners from the area.
Amid allegations of massive looting, Zimbabwe allowed several diamond companies to mine the area – most of them as joint ventures between the government and Chinese firms.
JOHANNESBURG – The South African National Civic Organisation (Sanco) on Monday slammed Deputy chairperson of the Democratic Alliance’s (DA’s) federal executive, Natasha Mazzone, for her tweet about how her immigrant father worked hard to “build himself up”, as yet another attempt to defend white privilege.
Earlier Mazzone tweeted: “My father arrived from Naples in Italy, he was dark, and could not speak English or Afrikaans, but he was a great chef. He built himself up from nothing to make a good life for his family. I HONOUR and thank my father.”
Reacting to the comment, Sanco Spokesperson Jabu Mahlangu said: “What Mazzone is not admitting to is that her migrant father and all other colonisers had the backing of racist apartheid laws as well as the evil system of white supremacy that among others guaranteed whites jobs, higher salaries, protection, better education, land, housing including access to exclusive recreational facilities”.
Mahlangu said these white privileges translated to prosperity and success for beneficiaries of decades of apartheid and now their dependants were boasting that the wealth they inherited was a result of hard work.
DA leader Mmusi Maimane, who is married to a white woman, told a rally in Soshanguve on Freedom Day that “white privilege and black poverty” must be confronted.
I stand 100% with my Leader Mmusi Maimane. I too will not pander to racists. Our mission is to create a South Africa for ALL who live here. Divided we are weak, united, we are unstoppable. South Africa first, ALWAYS —- https://t.co/Kosy547BEA
— Natasha Mazzone MP (@Natasha9Mazzone) May 6, 2018
Reports at the weekend suggested that senior members of the DA were unhappy with the comments.
Mazzone took to twitter to respond to the matter and incurred the wrath of SANCO.
Mahlangu said white members of the DA caucus that were challenging Maimane were simply reminding him that he “is the face of the party and not its leader”.
When you’re thinking about what to eat, how to get that beach body, or simply how to improve your health, fibre is not usually at the forefront of your mind. Instead, you’re probably thinking about getting more protein, or cutting down on your sugar intake. But that needs to change, because you’re almost certainly not getting enough fibre.
According to the FDA, most Americans are not getting their recommended dose of fibre. (That’s anywhere between 30 and 42g of fibre, depending on your age and your level of physical activity, according to 2010 dietary guidelines.)
This is a problem, because under-consumption of fibre has been linked to adverse health outcomes, such as a higher risk of heart disease, obesity or colorectal cancer.
“Our data show that only 4% of all men and 13% of women in the United States have a fibre intake above the recommended amount,” nutrition researcher Yanni Papanikolaou, MPH and PhD candidate, told Men’s Health.
Want to start eating more fibre, but sick of broccoli and All Bran? Here are five unsung fibre heroes that don’t get much love.
1. Almonds
Gram for gram, almonds are one of the higher fibre nuts out there, offering about 3g of fibre per ounce. Pair that with a piece of fruit as a snack, and you’ve got a satisfying, nutrient-dense combo.
2. Beans
Beans, beans – they’re not only good for your heart, they’re also one of the heartiest, most nutrient-dense foods out there. They’re budget-friendly, and they’re easy to tack onto a dish as a side dish. Plus, at 15g per cup, one cup of black beans offers almost half of the daily recommendation for fibre.
Whole fruit in general is a great source of fibre, but some fruits go above and beyond. Exhibit A: Raspberries. With 8g of fibre per serving, raspberries are not only low-kilojoule, they’re also very high in nutrition. Add a cup to smoothies, yogurt, cereal, cottage cheese (or pair them with the almonds, as suggested above).
After a surge in popularity about 10 years ago, flaxseed has seemed to fade out of favour. But this seed is a nutritional powerhouse with omega-3 fats, protein and, of course, fibre. All that makes it a perfect addition to your morning oats (even more fibre), yoghurt or on top of your cottage cheese. The key here is making sure you grind it well (a coffee grinder works).
5. Oat bran
Oatmeal gets lots of love, but for a slight change of pace in the morning, oat bran is a great alternative. It has a creamier consistency and texture and it’s packed with 6g of fibre in just 1/3 of a cup. Think of oat fibre as a sponge that helps lower lipid levels and keeps you full.
