“I am not sure which answer I can give you because I have been playing. But unfortunately, an injury came, and I was out, so you would never know how to rate yourself,” said Ditlhokwe to FARPost.

“It’s all about keeping your head up and focusing so that at the end of the day, you get to that level you have wished for or that target that you have set for yourself.
