The Biggest Man in Cricket

Episode 7 - Adrian Kuiper

Episode Summary

In the latest episode, The Biggest Man in Cricket is on the road - a road which leads to an apple farm in Elgin in the Western Cape. Strap in for a nostalgic trip down memory lane with the one and only Adrian Kuiper, the big-hitting middle-order batsman whose towering sixes into the Newlands crowd is etched in many a youngster's memory. He talks about the great Benson & Hedges era, squaring up to Clive Rice's 'Mean Machine', being greeted by 80 000 spectators at Eden Park, Rebel Cricket, watching the scoreboard change to '22 off 1 ball' in 1992, and THAT over from Craig McDermott. Oh, whether he ever hit a cricket ball into a Fish Hoek-bound train for the biggest six in history.
