The Wheel is Forever
Just because some people got away doesn't mean anything in regards to Hansie.
You seem to think our reaction is not warranted. And my issue is that this reaction is warranted regardless of who got away. That doesn't mean our reaction to him should be any different.Christ. Where on this thread am I defending him?
Azhar did say that he was singled out because he happened to be a 'Muslim' .Azharuddin, I think, at least didn't come out trying to appeal to the massively ******** and Christian SA Afrikaans population by saying 'it are what the devil is maded me did' (paraphrase).
looking at what people voted for in the poll, apparently not!I would rate him a 2 of 5.
But "it's original, and it does no-one any harm whatsoever.", at least according to Dicko.Lost a lot of respect for him when he put a stump through the umpire's dressing rooms at the Adelaide Oval.
He did overcome Aussies with the odi team. RSA was the best odi team for a period.So complete was his disgrace tho it is quite hard to assess his captaincy. What I will say is he actually had a very, very good team at his disposal and he could never overcome the Aussies with it.
Haha, it's a bit of a silly question though.You know, I get the distinct impression that the OP wasn't really concerned about Hansie's match-fixing crap, and wanted people to give an objective appraisal of his tactical skills.
Oh well. You tried.![]()
TBF talking about Cronje's captancy without reference to the match fixing is rather like attempting to discuss Colonel Sanders's culinary abilities without mentioning deep fried chicken.You know, I get the distinct impression that the OP wasn't really concerned about Hansie's match-fixing crap, and wanted people to give an objective appraisal of his tactical skills.

Choked spectacularly when it mattered most tho.He did overcome Aussies with the odi team. RSA was the best odi team for a period.
Yeah but they were undeniably the best OD side in the world for 2-3 years beating Australia more than Australia beat them during the period.Choked spectacularly when it mattered most tho.

Combined all games, RSA were ahead. I am pretty sure of that. Can't bring that stat up though.
Aus beat them home and away in OD series' regularly. Only in series' outside SA/Aus did SA have the upper-hand. Plus, Aus way ahead in finals of most tournaments against each other.
