WANDERERS – Hundreds of thousands of rands have already been raised for the Pink Drive in aid of breast cancer at the Wanderers Stadium.

That's where the Proteas are taking on England in the fourth ODI, also dubbed Pink Day.

Various stakeholders have pledged large amounts of money towards the initiative.

For every four that is hit in this game, R1,000 will be donated. R10,000 will be donated for every catch taken while R15,000 will be given for every six caught by a spectator.
