Behind South Africa’s rise to the top of Test cricket is a man whose story deserves to be told.
In this episode of Super Over, South Africa’s head coach and World Test Championship winner Shukri Conrad joins Carlos Brathwaite and Nikhil Uttamchandani for an exclusive conversation about leadership, culture, and the remarkable transformation of South African cricket.
From taking charge of a team in transition to guiding the Proteas to their historic 2025 ICC World Test Championship triumph, Conrad reflects on the decisions, challenges, and philosophies that helped turn South Africa into one of the most formidable teams in world cricket.
