He is hitting Philander, morkel and goat steyn. Whatta player!!
When he hit steyn and morkel?? he's got out by philander
@@lilwrld987 Steyn at 0:40
A cricket player
Hitting one boundary against each bowler doesn’t make him all that good. Even tailenders do that
90 per of his shots were of half nick 😂😂😂😂 only one shot he played well n got lucky on LBW such a looser 😂😂😂
The fact that he played for national team speaks volume of his caliber
His national team is South Africa but he didn't get a chance to play for them so moved to New Zealand
@Thrillex4523 understand the context

Here I got it bro😂

Mushfiq too
Mushfiq is far better than bavuma lol@@NazifMajid
Chota pack , bada dhamaka🔥💪. He is hitting shots on players like Philander , Steyn gun & Morkel. Amazing player🔥
He is the big example....never give up

this is inspirational. his love for the game must be enormous that helped him work hard at it despite his severe height disadvantage 💛💛💛
There is no advantage to be a tall batsman
Sachin Gavaskar😂😂?Height isn't a factor.
@@NN-fw9il Can a dwarf man play cricket?
@@NN-fw9iltrue. Cricket doesn't require height like physicsl sport football, Basketball , Rugby etc
@@nayanvaishnavvv
Messi height is 5 feet 7 inch and he playing football so "height" is used in paper for basketball,volleyball,rugby height is the main thing
Aravinda de Silva was 160cm and he was the 3rd batsman to score a century in a world cup final, and was the man of the match in a world cup final.
So? That's an irrelevant comment. What's that got to do with the video?
Which world cup? There are 2 wc
@@NEO-v7r 1996 of course when SL won on the back of de Silva's contribution.
Are u sure he is 160cm ?
I think so the data says he was 5 '3 @@NOAH_999
But fr he doesn't looks like 5'3 at all
Despite vertical challenges he made it to the national team. What a character! What a man❤
In cricket batsman height short means it is an advantage to him. Prrcentage of successful cricketers short vs tall is always high for short people only.
Absolutely.
Short medium height is SUPREME advantage to tackle bouncers and even fierce pace & slower one or spin, due to easier flexibility to gauge the ball ✌️☺️
I'm not very familiar with cricket rules...will it be considered a no ball if the ball went above his shoulder...i mean after bouncing@@SingNostalgiaWithAnand
Pat Cummins has unfair advantage for some reason idk why
Now I got some confidence to play cricket
And ironically he is dutch, the tallest race in the world lol😂
He is not Dutch. He's South African. born and raised in South Africa but opted to play for NZ internationally.
@@Targaryen_Historian white South Africans are descendants of the dutch
@@Targaryen_HistorianMost of south african white people are actually Dutch. for example ab de Villiers.
He is south african
@@firefoxf9405 of dutch decent
Hats off 👏 ...much appreciated...💗
Being short has its own advantage for batsman... Big example is the great Sachin Tendulkar
Chachin=north indian 💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩
Little Master Gawaskar
Not really, when you're taller batting just becomes too easy, Sachin has skill
Sachin was 5.5 inch(1.65m) while Gavasker is 5.4 inch(1.63m). That's average height so not exactly short and plenty of cricketers have that height
@@crashpal😂lol you are 5 4 this is very short height life is worthless if you are 5 4 and not becone sucessfull like sachin 😂
This is more surprising because he is born in South Africa and I assume he has Dutch lineage from his last name and is still short
Everything reverses in the southern hemisphere. He is a 7 footer in Netherlands.
@@rutvikrshahahaha
It is rare to see dutch guys being short
@@rutvikrs
So 7 gets reduced to one-seventh in south ☹️😭😫
4.75ft only according to some people's perspective but according to my perspective he is still a man💪.
He played very good shots .... In cricket it just about talent and hardwork....like Sachin Tendulkar,james Tylor and Kruger van wyk
finally a perfect player for new zealand pitches...
This is very old video, man 😊
Two years late mate😂
If Kruger Van Wyk the New Zealand cricketer of 4 feet in height scored boundaries of the great South African pace attack of Morne Morkel, Dale Steyn and Vernon Philander then he should have played in 2019 and 2023 50 overs World Cup.Kruger van Wyk vs the Indian pace attack of Bumrah, Shami and Siraj might have both the India vs New Zealand encounters in 2023 World Cup a paisa vasool contest.
he is already 45...
Wow. He played really well on difficult situation
Something similar to Sunil Gavaskar... Being short in height used to hit Big West Indies bowlers like they were nothing... That too without helmet 😅
Imagine matchup between Kruger Van Wyk vs Mohammad Irfan 💀💀💀
Why Irfan when newzealand has Jamieson already
@@firefoxf9405 I might be wrong but I think Md Irfan was taller than Jamieson.
So inspirational
তার উচ্চতা দেখে আমাগো জুঙ্গুরদীর (নগরকান্দা)মুসা ভাইয়ের কথা মনে পড়ে গেলো যিনি কম উচ্চতা আর একেবারেই লিকলিকে গড়নের হওয়া সত্বেও ক্রিকেটের বেশ নিবেদিত একজন খেলোয়াড় ছিলেন।
New Zealand - Kruger
India - Sachin
England - James Taylor
Australia - Phillip Hughes
South Africa - Temba
Bangladesh - Mushfiqur Rahim
He has a Dutch name that makes it even more interesting.
He Doesn't look like a dwarf though. Just short height
Hight is not matter
He got talent in cricket
this gives me confidence
This was the fiercest bowling lineup of that generation.
Exceptionally low centre of gravity
Every ball is no ball for him 🔥☠️
thx for this video
Well played
Well if you can face Dale, Morkel and Philander in SA then guess guy what nobody will gonna care about ur height.
Greatest player after Fleming in NZ first class.
Defying dwarfism and playing international cricket. This is incredible
Very short man but excellent batting style ❤❤
Bowler need to be carful not to throw full tosses at him, as every time it would be a no-ball 😂😂😂
A person's real height is his/her persona and achievement in life
I looked at his records in first class and they’re amazing. Shoulda got a better run in tests
rather than discussing his height ,,, he seems to be very compact player
Reminds me of parthiv Patel debut against england
His batting technically looks like almost similar to Brandon McCalam
You have wrong information he is 4.9 feet
Imagine the situation when he face Marco Jansen ..
he faced morkel😏
Batters with short height are always a good player against fast bowling. Can anybody guess why?
Because they are good at square of the wicket due to their height
@@classyshots4433 and also fast bowlers find it difficult to bowl at them. If they pitch too full it will literally become half volley, and generally good length for any bowler is like short of length for them.
He played 9 test matches
Sometimes it's only we, and it's a question of why to judge someone as being short or the shortest and the same follows up with somebody's difference. If somebody has some physical issue then they linked it with the term called disabled perfection was a lie that was got up from the surroundings and it, still constantly prove wrong by skilful people.
This is not out.. very unfortunate Mr. Wyk
I Can't believe bcz temba bavma is the shortest player in the history of cricket
Well done Kruger 🔥🫡
We are here after the fb post.
Fans of other cricketers : 'Cheering them'
His Fans : Aww
And Kiwis called Ajinkya Rahane 'spoon' 😏
4.5- 5.5 ft is the best height for a good batsman. They bat better
His stance and body language reminding me of rahul dravid! anyone else?
I am 160cm and this gives me hope.
i am 180 cm nearly reaching 6feet
Hits His Waist
Appealed for LBW
Given Out
Career End 😂
Dude's batting decently
Well that was "short" lived
if you are 7 feet tall or 4.75 feet tall you have to use same bat, i mean length. is that fair
Does anybody remembers that tiny taylor from England ❤🔥❤🔥??
James Taylor. He played in the same county team as Will Jefferson, who was 6' 10".
Comparing his height with the wickets
That was an illegal catch. It touched the ground clearly
Nonsense. It was still going down.
Ball touches the ground
Whole stadium in disgust..awwww
Commentators... perfectly fair , no problem at all😂😂
Abe ungli hai neeche
God bless him❤❤❤❤❤
Surprise to see this guy generally shirt height cricketers come from subcontinent
Most ppl dont realise that shorter height gives u a greater advantage in batting as u dont hsve to bend everytime for those annoying low balls especially in subcontinent plus u can also see bouncers very well
Sachin had that advantage
The guy is clearly over 5ft comparing him to other playing the match.
beautiful cover drive!
Philander was McGrath of S.Africa
Fanie Deviliers in 1990s, and Pollock till 2008, were MCGRATH of SA ☺️
just like Patel was Mcgrath of India 😂
The English bowlers in 2023 would have bowled every ball over his head.
He looks cute baby 😍
Remembering Sachin... 🌟
Imagine Joel Garner or Curtly Ambrose bowling to him 💀💀
U forget about temba bavuma father of dhonki
Are you sure he is newzealander
Or dutch south african
Ball to bails is bouncer for him😊
Bad Dutchman 😂🎉
Sachin was also 4’8 only
The only cricketer who sachin can call ae chote idar aa😂
Usually superb behind square both sides, due to using pace instead of muscle.
Hieght doesn't matter in cricket skill matters
Imagine this guy in Front of Mohammed Irfan 😀
yeah
more then 2 foot height difference lmao
Don't do body shaming dude
It's very wrong
Rey Mysterio vs Khali
Wide ball and then no ball. Great tactics
Good for the kid to play cricket instead of playing video games
Bros Height 😂.....Bros Shots 😇
Stop laughing at other people's insecurity moron
Way he drop
Imagine if the bowler balls a full toss 😂
Normal bouncer will be called a wide
He is sachin of newzealand
Feisty!
There are short basketball players as well
"Hey Kruger, you couldn't smooth a silk sheet if you had a hot date with a .. I lost my train of thought."
What has height got to do with cricket. What is the purpose of this video?
Why does a video have to have a "purpose"?
He be like:- halke mein maat liyo mereko do tin trophy jeeta kar Aya hu team Ko chaye Jaisi bhi ball karo har bowl mein 4 marunga
The ball hits the ground first. It is not out.
Mostly short heights Batman are more successful
Hit him on the pad and there's zero chance of the ball being too high.
He is half the height of Marco Jansen 😂
Your math is weak buddy
so Jansen is 9.5 feet ?
How will be play bouncers? With a ladder?
