Cricket South Africa (CSA) on Tuesday congratulated Jacques Kallis on his 150th Test match appearance in the third Test against Sri Lanka at Newlands, Cape Town.
“Jacques' career statistics speak for themselves,” CSA CEO Gerald Majola said.
“He is unquestionably one of the greatest players ever to play this great game and as an all-rounder his career is almost unique in batting in the top four and being a major strike bowler who has been required to take the new ball at times.”
Majola said Kallis represented everything good in cricket, and had never been involved in controversy at any stage of his career.
“He has also made a huge commitment to helping less privileged youngsters to achieve their cricketing and educational dreams through the Jacques Kallis Trust,” Majola said.
“Already two beneficiaries of this programme have represented South African Schools and there is the prospect that one day a beneficiary of the Trust will play alongside Jacques in a Test match.”
He said Kallis still had a great deal to offer the Proteas squad. – Sapa
