A Declaration and Forfeit on Zero: The Hansie Cronje Fixing Scandal

In this intriguing video, we delve into the contentious cricket match featuring South Africa led by Hansie's Cronje and England. The game stirred up a whirlwind of controversy as Hansie made a bold decision to declare and subsequently forfeit, all in pursuit of securing a favorable outcome. Initially hailed as a strategic masterstroke, the move earned him admiration from fans and accolades from the cricketing community. However, the narrative took a sharp turn when allegations surfaced suggesting unethical conduct behind Hansie's actions. Shockingly, it was purported that monetary inducements were involved, casting a shadow of doubt over the integrity of the match and tarnishing Hansie's reputation. In the end, history proved them right, and Hansie admitted to meeting with a bookmaker regarding this game. This is just one instance of his involvement in fixing incidents in his life. However, we only scratch the surface of his fixing activities in India and how the late 1990s to the 2000s was a tough time, as many players were found guilty or questioned in South Africa, India, and Pakistan.

Leave fixing chapter apart , Cronje was far too ahead of his era .

[@CricMarvels-is7ze]

He would have retired as a legend for sure if he had stayed away from such acts. But it doesn't take away from the fact that he was a great player.

[@sachintulachan2641]

Average player great captain....with a average team...defeating India 2 nil at home...some of his famous achievements

[@FlyingBoer]

He was made a scapegoat of this, cause lot of players were involved in match fixing that era

[@rebelfromhell777]

His biggest crime was to admit he fixed… same for Manoj Prabhakar…

[@user-bl9jh2yo4m]

He was purposefully killed

[@testingmystuff]

[@srinivashreddy5156]

These people won't listen they only needs likes and subscribers

[@RuanAntunes7]

It’s a shame that he was involved in match fixing because he was such a special player.

[@aravindcr7995]

The forfeiting and declaring cannot be linked with fixing bcos you don't know if opposite team would chase down or lose bcos if by say, Hansie wanted to lose by fixing then why he took that gamble??? I think after this there was one match between aus newzealand, in aus where 1 innings was forfeited...

[@gsubbarao6373]

What ever he is my favourite player.

[@karthikraja6111]

Kindly discuss about RR and CSK IPL fixing?

[@whoamInonsense]

I dnt find anything offensive here _also he brought back ganguly when he has ran out in titan cup after getting collision with de veliarrs.. supposedly no one will do that

[@ganeshpeter8287]

Love his batting

[@vactechindia4528]

Both caption involved in match fixing

[@karanvij00]

4:13 It was a TIED game, not a DRAWN game at Gabba. I would suggest you to please read more about cricket terminologies and facts before become a "Creator". Most of the people don't even know the difference between TIE and a DRAW, and it's even more confusing when it comes to Test Cricket. But it's ok if people don't know the difference, but I hate the fact that young lads like you just focus on making content rather than first learning about the subject properly.

[@sarthakgirdhar2833]

😂 itna kya hogaya bhai. Sirf yahi ek cheez seekhi hai kya?

[@aravindcr7995]

Yes that was the first tied game of test cricket

[@karanvij00]

@@sarthakgirdhar2833 I'm a Level 1 BCCI umpire. So, no, I know about laws and terminologies much more that Draw and Tie

[@sarthakgirdhar2833]

​@@karanvij00 Good for you. I am certainly not an umpire but I do know that whining condescendingly about a random KZbin video rather than politely pointing out a basic difference between two terms is just childish. It's like Virat Kohli telling desi children that their stance is stupid and that they shouldn't play cricket. :)
