The English cricket team had a largely successful outing during their last tour to South Africa as they won the Test series 2-1 and conceded the ODI series by a narrow margin of 2-3. After having taken a 2-0 lead in the ODIs, Eoin Morgan and his team decided to take time off and attend a concert by British rock band Mumford and Sons.

During the concert, the popular band decided to be gracious to their fellow Englishmen and dedicated one of their songs to them. This drew the ire of the home crowd who turned hostile and began booing the England cricketers attending the show. Despite this, though, the players enjoyed their time and posed for a few pictures with Mumford and Sons post the concert.
