Jacques Kallis is one of the legendary all-rounders of the South African cricket team. He achieved many great achievements in his cricketing career. Jacques Kallis, who is 44 years old, was considered not only in batting and bowling but also in fielding. He will be remembered in the cricket world.

He scored 45 centuries and 58 half-centuries in 166 Tests to score 13289 runs at an average of 55.37. In the same ODI, he scored 11579 runs in 328 ODIs at an average of 44.36 with the help of 17 centuries and 86 half-centuries. Not only this, he has 292 Test and 273 ODI wickets in his bowling.


There was a time in Kallis' career when he was shown a way out of the team due to his short stature. At that time, he was dropped from the Western Provinces Under-15 team. The reason behind taking him out was that he could not play shots in the square area because of his stature.
