Page "Hansie Cronje" Paragraph 12

India toured South Africa in 1992 / 93.

In the first one day international, he hit the famous six when his team needed 6 runs off only 4 balls, and was awarded Man of the match, for his bowling.

In the one-day series Cronje managed just one fifty but with the ball he was economical and took his career best figures of 5 / 32, becoming the second South African to take five wickets in an ODI.

In the Test series that followed he scored his maiden test century, 135 off 411 balls, after coming in at 0-1 in the second over he was last man out, after eight and three-quarter hours, in a total of 275.

This contributed to South Africa's first Test win since readmission.

At the end of the season in a triangular tournament with Pakistan and West Indies he scored 81 off 70 balls against Pakistan.
