- Australian captain Allan Border was giving Brian McMillan a hard time in the middle during a Test match, so Big Mac went to see him in the change room afterwards to sort everything out. With a gun...
Brian McMillan, I use to idolize him as a great all-rounder cricket ever produced, Love from India!!!
Macmilan this guy was one of the best slip fielder, most hardest hitting batsman & a deadly bowler. The first finest allrounder cricket have ever seen. His sequel was kallis who was similiar to macmilan. Love from INDIA.
Finest all-rounder? Him? Seriously? Gotta be kidding.
He had such big hands that’s the only thing I remember never dropped a catch
What on earth are you talking about? Utter nonsense.
Oh bullshit, finest all rounder my arse. He was average at best
Sir Garfield Sobers??…..
Mr. Mc is a true gentleman
Was at Wanderers stadium 92/93
SA vs Pakistan
I was 12
Cricket was everything in my Greek house (Pothas I love you)
Asked Mr Mc for a signature at tea
He said after the match
I said that is what you All Say
We were 20 meters from the rope and marked an X with that tiny shoe of his
With big spikes
And said at the close of play meet me here.
True as bob he was there to sign my mini gm bat.
Bless you Brian
You inspired
Wish to meet you once more
Big Mac, he would run in so slowly and relaxed and then all of a sudden let rip with a quick bouncer. I remember him breaking the middle stump in half after bowling a batsman in the 1992 cricket world cup. I can't remember against what team it was, maybe Pakistan.
It was Botham, for England. The stump just exploded.
My favourite cricketer , excellent slip fielder , genuine number 6 batter with outstanding technique and a fiersome fast medium bowler. Best all rounder in cricket between 92-97
One of my fav back in the 90s. Oh! Cricket was much better those days. I was desperate to watch even a clip of cricketing action from Sa vs Aus because, there was no live telecast in my country at that time. I'd wait for the sports time of the news in the hope that they might paly few seconds of the match as they tell the news.
I miss those days! One day games, Brian and Jonty Rhodes at the crease. Pure golden memories!
I miss to see Sachin Tendulkar, Allan donald,Shaun Pollock,Jack kallis,Brian McMillan,Jhonty Rhodes,Rahul Dravid,Anil Kumble,Hensie Cronje❤️❤️💐💐
I don't feel like that about the England team of the day. Well, maybe a few of them, but as for the team...
@@ianb9729 yeah back then England wasn't a force in odi only in test cricket England was really good..
It was hilarious the way Jonty used to push him to run
I liked the memories of South Africa losing semi finals in the World Cups... also a great day for cricket today. All wrapped up in 2 days for the Brisbane test. Go Aussies.
These stories are great 😃😃
Great story but AB was such a hard bugger you needed a gun to get the better of him LoL 🤣
Big Mac.. In the slips when catches went flying... They went straight into those bucket hands😄.
One of my favourite, the big man from RSA.
You would never get a policeman or guard to hand over his weapon in Australia.
Skip police are pretty corrupt
Sounds like a bit of a bullshit story to me from ol' fatty Mac
@@temptemp2881 Yeah I reckon so too. I don't reckon a bloke like AB who never shyed from any bowler ever would get scared of a fatso like this no way
My favorite cricketer in 90's
Same
This is like Australian tv with South African accents
OMG I m watching him after more than 20 years
He was my fav cricketer
Probably the greatest slips fielder ever.
McMillan was one of the best all rounder that the game ever produced. McMillan was a nightmare for India
Rubbish. He was crap
I ve seen him for the first time since 1999.
Brilliant!
Big Mac completely shattered Ian Botham's middle stump in the 92 world cup match.
Thats about all he did in that World Cup
@@temptemp2881He did scare the Aussies he's telling you.. and RSA was coming back from ban....!!!
We loved McMillan in Australia too. Legend!
The first finest allrounder cricket had ever seen ? what was Gary Sobers then ?
this is a south african show so they are probably saying we as in we south africans
@@dhruvkaluskar7418 Wouldn't they say Jacques Kallis then?
😂😂😂😂
Botham says hold my beer
@@dhruvkaluskar7418 Tony Greig, Clive Rice, Trevor Goddard, Eddie Barlow, Mike Procter
Yeah, sure, talk yourself up Brian.
Australians don't mind a prank either. This would have made MacMillon a popular figure amongst the Aussie players
It makes him popular with this Australian, I love A Border but this story is hilarious.
If you make a joke like that today, the woke brigade will get you locked up.
Mac was who I tried to emulate growing up playing cricket... Him and Wasim Akram
As an Aussie I condone it too.
😂😂😂😂 what a creck on an Aussie 😂😂 man deserves a beer for such a prank 😂😂🍺 cheers
Next to only Kallis i would say he was the best allrounder Sa ever produced.
Don’t forget Adrian
Guess you never heard of Mike Proctor ...???
Oh Bullshit. Proctor, Klusener, Morris, Kallis were miles better than this Chop.
He looks like that actor that did that stuff
McMillan was a gun player!
McMillan Burger had a test/odi batting average of 34/10 and bowling average of 46/46 against Australia. He certainly wasn't intimidating anyone ON the field. It tells you a lot about his character that he is proud to retell the story of himself, a 6foot 2 big frame of a man, and the only time he ever intimidated was not during the career of his chosen profession, but behind the barrel of a gun.
That's the real joke.
The only genuine All Rounder in the 90s.
He played against Ian Botham in the 1992 CWC. I reckon that was in the 90s. And I reckon Botham was a fine all rounder.
@@interestedbystander196 true. Wise crack
@@midshipsport Actually there were a few seriously good all rounders in the 90s, especially from South Africa.
Lance Klusener, Shaun Pollock and Jacques Kallis certainly spring to mind. Sanath Jayasuriya and Andrew Flintoff both played in the 90s. Also Steve Waugh, Imran Khan and maybe Wasim Akram. I might also call Shahid Afridi an all rounder.
I got the wise crack, but Big Mac, while far from the best, was also more than handy to have in your team. I seem to recall some amazing catches by him.
@@interestedbystander196 Big Mac made this debut late and was a "Genuine" Alrounder. Yes Flintoff was but more of 2000s Imran was 70s & 80s , Jayasurya was a batsman who could bowl well and the rest were great fast bowlers who could bat.
@@midshipsport But Klusener could bat (could he ever!) and bowl. Ditto Pollock - he only batted as low as he did due to the batting firepower in the SA lineup at the time. He could have batted 5 or 6 easily, instead of 8 or even 9 like he usually did. Several test 100s.
Steve Waugh was an excellent bowler for Australia, often on as first change, so he passes muster for my definition, and Jacques Kallis is up there at the top of the all-rounder tree alongside Sobers.
Kallis could have been in the side just as a batsman, or just as a bowler. He was pretty much the perfect all rounder, especially in his younger days - he had good pace as aza bowler, and his batting record speaks for itself.
He hasn't left anything on the plate either, he's stacked on.
Hi mc 1 of my fav person in south Africa after long time mc
Do you know him personally?
Who are other 2 guys next Brian
Hansie was captain
Brian would donner Allan Boder his big mac
Wow it was so funny , no you had to be there , seriously ,
He needed a gun, cause he sure wasn’t one. Figures don’t lie. I thought they called him an allrounder because of his gut.
Doesn’t matter what country they’re from, there’s nothing funnier than a few ex cricketers telling a yarn. Pure gold!
It was 1994 Austrlian south african Brian
gold!
Brian seems like a decent bloke & I know there was no malice intended & it was only a joke, but pretending to threaten someone with a gun? I'm sorry I think that's going a bit too far.
Nah mate lighten up
Yeah and what Aussies do is saintly stuff😂😂😂 btw there is a similar story of Richie Benaud being scared by a fellow Australian cricketer so well done Brian.
Big Mac makes Bakkies look average size lol
Messing around with a gun is a bit beyond a joke. Pale sense of humour
It was probably a funnier practical joke back before Columbine and 9/11 and whatnot.
Sounds like a criminal offence to me..would want to hear a legal opinion
@@brookinghouseof9457 you a arsepuss
Take a chill pill OR see a shrink OR go find a "safe space"
Alan Border was 100x better at cricket than this guy could ever dream of being.
Hey mate thats a bit mean you do realise as good as cricketer as AB is brian done pretty well and AB had and extra 24 years then him so maybe if south Africa wasn't expelled he could of played a lot earlier and his career would of been better but as an Aussie I reckon he didn't do to bad
We know that Semi Final of 1992 world cup was bull shit and we also know that Richardson and Mcmillan will chase the score but duckluwise method had been dostroyed in cricket history. My suggestion is if rain will start in important matches then match will be postponed for next day or as and if rain will stop.
Border one of the greatest cricketers of all time. McMillan a nobody and Bakkies Botha a thug.
Border was one of the greatest, Mac was was crucial at times for SA. Came from isolation and we done quite well in that time period. As for Bakkies he had a job as enforcer. And excuse me we won numerous titles and world cups. He played within what the law allowed. Bakkies as a person off the field is a gentlman and well liked. Just because he kicked ass on the field he wasnt liked by opposition supporters.
😂mc Millan u legend , l like wen somebody gives back to Aussies , cos they sledge to oppositions n wen someone gives it bck , they became cry baby .
at least Australians can write in English.
@@davidradford2627 so, now you r gonna make fun of someone's language? smh 🤦♀️
when people were people
When people thought they were Wyatt Earp.
South African's need to be pulled into line occasionally.
Good on you Alan.
hahahaha...genius
Legend !!!
The joke is his performances; as an all-rounder, he averaged 23 with the bat and 36 with the ball. Putrid.
Kegan Du Preez Would that be the test record where he took 75 wickets across 64 innings? Yes, he is a force to be reckoned with!!!? 1.05 wickets per innings? He’s deadly! 😂🤣.
ryan mitchell Not saying BM is the greatest, but I'd happily take a test batting average just shy of 40.
As would you...and it would probably stop you from squeaking:) Hopefully anyway.
Firstly, even if you average 200 you should not be taking a gun, loaded or not, into an opposition changeroom. Clearly, even after dismissing Border, he felt he still needed to prove himself. We don’t need Freud here. There are esteem issues.
I don’t like to speak without evidence, so I crunched some numbers on cricinfo. Many of his scores down at batting position 7 & 8 are sound, true, but not out. I do not want to criticise Donald, de Villiers and Snell...but hardly guys who would hang about. Like Michael Bevan, scratch the surface, and the high average comes from not out appearances. When given a chance up the order batting at three, we see a huge drop. When batting at 7/8 he was left on 87*,59*,103*, 98* Remove these from the data set? His test average is 13.78. That includes the 55 he made batting a 3 and the 100* vs England.
So yes, his average, at first glance, is passable yeah, he’s a hero etc
But don’t tell me his actions were acceptable- or as a player he was anywhere near Pollock, Kallis or Cronje.
Ryan Mitchell You're a bit of a finger wagging holier than thou moralist re the gun incident.
And let's face it - you're really engaging in hair splitting semantics. At the end of the day, after 38 test matches and 62 innings, McMillan ended with a batting average a whisker shy of 40, so just stop. I don't think his batting average makes him a "hero" and nor did I say that.
And I never compared him to Pollock, Kallis or Cronje. Nor did I say his actions were acceptable or unacceptable. And nor did I say his actions were related to his average any way what so ever. Stay focused and stick to the point.
And you referring to a cricketer's actions being unacceptable and then lauding (ha!) hanse cronje (who had a test batting average of just over 36!!!) did make me chuckle:) You're all over the place!!! And why such virulent antipathy?
Sorry mate, can’t tolerate his actions with a gun and his records don’t hold up to analysis. End of.
He was good but not even in the same bracket as finest allrounder... i.e Garfield Sobers Richard Hadlee Ian Botham Imran Khan Kallis territory brother
Who ?
😂😂😂
The last line fantastic. No one cares what happens to the Aussies
Everyone's so bitter about being thrashed by them over the many years. It's not their fault they're so good.
Brainfade, Dressing Room System? Remind you of a certain team?
Coming from a nation where their national sporting heroes are Hansie Cronje and Oscar Pistorius🤔
HK Z hmm,you care by posting matey.
The sandpaper boys are angry!
Everyones so bitter in SA about being beaten by Aus over so many years. Calm down.
Sandpaper.

"poor black guy serving food"????...still referring to them as "black"...??
"poor bloke ahhh serving the food"
When did he say that?
He said the poor bloke serving the food but it sounds like black because of his accent but he said poor bloke serving the food
d
That accent is so hard to understand. Almost like English is not his native tongue.
Please don't tell me that you are one of those muppets who think that the ridiculous speech impediment called "received pronunciation" is a sensible way to speak English.
south Africans understand him just fine
Really?! I'm an Aussie and understand him just fine!
He sounds like he's speaking from his arsehole.
I’m English and understand him fine. Mind you, half our team is normally South African...
Ol' Fat Mac. One of the Kak-est all rounders of his generation. You can see Bakkies thinking to himself "what a doos"
This big guy was quite a character. Not n outstanding player by any standards. Obese guy.
He was very very good in his day.
@@interestedbystander196 never saw him play like match winner like Donald,rhodes, Pollock, kallis....never
@@ass09tube You don't have to be a match-winner to be good. He was more the solid, dependable guy, much like the SA wicketkeeper at the time, Dave Richardson.
I'm sure McMillan got MoM once or twice, though. He was good in his day.
@@interestedbystander196 cut the crap....bullshit
@@ass09tube Which bit is bullshit, exactly?
Border was probably a complete prick who crossed the line, but pulling a firearm as some form of joke, seriously.
Complete prick, no, but like anyone he could have his moments.
Bucket as he was known..
Was about to comment.. Yes he had hands like buckets
Do South Africans just laugh at anything 😂
They’re laughing in all the wrong places!
it's their hilarious accent :)
Do Australians just get scared at anything?
Big man
What a hero
