South African cricket skipper Graeme Smith has allegedly proposed to his Irish girlfriend, Morgan Deane, over the weekend. Deane, a vocalist for Irish band Industry, visited Smith in Delhi during the Proteas’ ICC Cricket World Cup campaign last month.

Smith has not yet returned to South Africa, since the Proteas bowed out of the tournament after losing their quarter final match to New Zealand. The couple has been spotted together in Ireland in recent days however, and there are rumours flying around Twitter that Smith and Deane got engaged over the weekend.

Whatever the reasons for Smith’s extended absence from SA following the CWC, we’re sure we’ll be enlightened soon enough.
