Police at Verulam made a breakthrough when they linked fi ve arrested suspects to various serious and violent crimes at Canelands, Cotton-lands and oThongathi.

The breakthrough is as a result of proactive policing, which resulted in Verulam police of-fi cers stopping a vehicle with four occupants. The vehicle and occupants were searched and they were found in posses-sion of three unlicensed fi re-arms, a police bulletproof vest and handcuffs.

The vehicle is suspected to be used in various crimes in the area. Police spokesper-son, Brigadier Jay Naicker, said, “The suspects were pro-fi led by police and they were linked to a number of cases in the area, including house rob-beries, business robberies and attempted murders.

He added that the suspects were remanded into custody whilst the investigation into their involvement in other crimes are ongoing.

Last week two victims, in In-anda Road, were kidnapped by the suspects, where they were held at gunpoint and forced into the boot of a vehicle.

They were taken to a truckyard on Peters Road, where the sus-pects demanded R50 000 from the victims and proceeded to severly assault them. For-tunately, one of the victims, who had been released by the

Women's sport in South Africa has defi nitely come a long way over the last few years. However, it is impor-tant to remember the sportswomen who have made this a reality. For-mer Durbanite and current Protea women's player, Trisha Chetty, 31, embodies the perseverance and re-silience that it took to bring women's cricket and sport to where it is today.

Chetty started her cricket journey as early as primary school where she played for both the Truro Pri-mary and Ocean View Primary boy's cricket teams. Her passion for crick-et continued into high school as she played for the Kharwastan Second-ary School's boy's cricket team until Grade 10.

All of Chetty's hard work fi nally payed off in 2007, when she was called up to the South African Na-tional Women's team.

"Playing for my country was always a dream for me. I’ll never forget the phone call I got to say I’ve made the team. We played Pakistan and we won so it was a good start to my ca-reer. And after more than 100 ODI's, I’m still loving every minute", said Chetty.

Chetty became a veteran wicket-

keeper for the Proteas, adorning the number 8 on her back. She played over 150 times for the team and scored over 3 600 runs in Tests, ODIs and T20s. A career highlight for Chetty was her inclusion in the 2017 ICC Women's World Cup na-tional team, reaching the semi-fi nals with them.

Her career received a major blow in 2018 when a back injury caused her to sit on the sidelines for over a year as well as miss that year’s T20 World Cup. However, she did not let this put out the fi re in her belly and after a grueling recovery she made her return to the national side in their T20 series clash against Bangladesh.“Coming out of an injury that set me

back for over a year was one of the tough-est challenges I’ve ever faced in my career but it has also made me stronger physically and

mentally. Recently I got to play in the Bang-ladesh Emerging tour and it was just amazing to be back on the fi eld with the girls. Com-ing back, I just wanted to be as positive as I could be in every situ-ation and to contribute to us winning as much as I could", said Chetty.

Chetty played a vital role in their serie’s win, scoring an impressive

72 runs off just 59 balls in their last match, proving that she's still one of South Africa's best.

Looking towards the rest of 2019, Chetty says that her focus will be on cementing her place in the Protea lineup and improve the consistency of her per-formances.
