Jacques Kallis trends in India for bizarre reason right after Sanju Samson's brilliance vs South Africa in 1st T20I
Hindustan TimesLegendary cricketer Jacques Kallis found himself trending on social media platform X upon the conclusion of South Africa's first T20I of the four-match series against India, but it had nothing to do with the match itself. Cricket Iceland, an account on X known for its banter and willingness to engage in back-and-forths with fans, posted a question: “If we exclude players from Australia, India, England, and West Indies, who is the greatest cricketer of all time?” For most cricket fans, not having South Africa being a part of this list made the question a fairly simple one, with waves of users responding with what is the first answer most might think of when thinking of South African cricket. With over 1500 comments, plenty of users came to argue the case for Jacques Kallis, widely considered one of the finest cricketers of all time, who warranted a place in the South African XI as batter or bowler alone despite being an “The one and only Jacques Kallis. In a 166-Test career for South Africa, Jacques Kallis scored over 13,000 runs, good for the third-most Test runs by any player, and had an incredible boost through the fact that he took nearly 300 wickets.
