Background
Jacques Henry Kallis (born 16 October 1975 in Pinelands, Cape Town) is a South African cricketer. He is a talented right-handed batsman and effective fast-medium bowler who can swing the ball both ways off a good line and length. He is the only cricketer in the history of the game to hold more than 9,500 runs, 200 wickets and 100 catches in both Test and One Day International cricket. Sanath Jayasuriya has achieved that feat in ODIs but not Tests, and Garfield Sobers achieved it in Tests. Often criticised for his apparent unwillingness to dominate the opposition and score runs quickly, Kallis has demonstrated increasing willingness to attack with the bat in hand in recent years, and from October-December of 2007 produced a remarkable streak of 5 centuries in 4 Test Matches. With 30 Test centuries, one more than Sir Donald Bradman, Kallis has established himself as one of the modern greats of the game despite never scoring a double-hundred (although coming close a number of times). He was named Leading Cricketer in the World in the 2008 Wisden for his performances in 2007. Kallis also plays for Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Indian Premier League, where he averaged 16.85 runs per innings with the bat and 55.5 runs per wicket with the ball at an economy rate of 9.65 in the 7 matches he played before he was dropped.
