"I've seen this kid at Wynberg boys high and he is going to become the very best cricketer the world has ever seen" Bob Woolmer to Alan Donald in the early nineties.
Kallis had no X factor. He was solid as a rock but he didn't really threaten the opposition. He was not the type of player who could change the game in a session. He scored heavily against Bangladesh, Zimbabwe and weak Windies sides but never really performed against the likes of Australia when the chips were down. He doesn't have iconic knocks like Laxman's 281 or Lara's 153*.
he is an anchor, every good team needs a player who stays in and accumulates runs while others (in his case Smith, Amla, De Villiers) push the run rate along. not on par with Lara, Tendulkar or Ponting, but with an average of 56+, plus 280 wickets (certainly will be over 300 by the time he retires), he certainly the next in line.
Sucess in a world cup (averaged 8 in the recent T20 WC), a ton in Sri Lanka - he cant play spin, maybe he could figure out how to bat in England (averages 32 there in 16 years), maybe he could dominate in a series vs Australia (failed miserably in SA v Aus)
robelinda Good batsmen who get out to crap balls should take a leaf out of his book. Learn to leave some balls, It's TEST cricket. Test the bowler's patience and see who comes out on top. More often than not, it was Kallis
one thing this video is evidence of - siddle must be the unluckiest bowler on the planet. ALWAYS hits good areas and seams the ball both ways but doesnt pull bundles of wickets as often as he should...just unlucky in the end
Kallis playing cricket with tortoise speed. But sachin destroys world's best bowlers especially shane warne. Sachin hit 200 in ODI. Kallis need 5 days to complete 200 runcricket godfather Bradman salutes sachin. Suppose kallis is god of cricket means sachin is the god of all the small gods(kallis)
Kali Dass sachin se asha record hai kallis ka test me only batting if add bolling tu sachin kush bi ni hai kallis ke age overseas avarge bhi 50 ke opper hai kallis ki
Dravid, any day. Master of English conditions, master of spinners. Kallis has batted like a retarded gorilla in England, and hasnt made a run in Sri Lanka, no idea against soin.
Thanks mate, never seen any video focus on leaving the ball. This was gold for a batsman who is learning the craft.
The leave is the most important shot in cricket. Make the bowler bowl to you, then put him away. All you that have commented are too t20 orientated.
Aus would kill for a player of Kallis's class.The guy would walk into the side and outperform everyone.
why do you hate him rob , he is such a sweet guy , he has always been underrated and happy with it !
player of the history...... my fav
Best allrounder the world have ever seen.👌

he avg's 54 overseas with 16 tons.... what more do u want rob!!
I could watch this all day
That's called OWNING the moment !! Kallis is the King allrounder !!
Most "ElDeSt" All Rounder ever seen still playing Test Cricket in history of KIRKET
He dominated us this series, even with an injured leg.
Thats how i feel when i watch Kallis bat! MORE FOURS PLEASE....
will dominate here this year IMHO... and his 182 in England was a classic!
All the shots in the book here

finally u know who the god of cricket is

World number one allrounder
was about to counter you "Ricky in the sub-continent ......" but then Ricky is consistently above 50 against all teams!!! Blimey!!
Rob have you done a degree in cockiness or does it come naturally for you?
I went to sign up for the course but they said I was over qualified. Natural born talent I guess!
+robelinda legendary response to squash a troll! good on u mate!
+Matthew Osterloh lol
Ah the irony and the failure of youtubers to notice the joke in this video. Good work Rob

Mighty kalis!

Do you own the robelinda account too?
Best allrounder in cricket history he is far better then sachin
The Aussies could take a page out of his book, ay rob?
Everyone should take a leaf out of Kallis' book!

@@robelinda he has an average of over 50 in test cricket which makes him greatest test player .what more u want .Now go and fuckkk urself 😝
I'd rather have Kallis in my team than Sachin - purely because of his bowling.
(Cue cries of "but SACHIN is da gr8est leg spinna evar")

Kallis left some rubbish balls in this video.

Sachin cant be compared with kallis
Funny video lol

KALLIS IS A GAY AND NOT THE GOD OF CRICKET
