We caught up with Jonty Rhodes in Pakistan, ahead of his departure to Stockholm to coach the Swedish national cricket team. We talked about how he nearly represented South Africa at hockey in the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona, being too small and fragile for football and how Pele became his sporting hero. Of course, 1992 was far more memorable for his "Superman" run out of Inzamam, and the photo that sealed his place in cricket's hall of fame. Jonty spoke about the effect of apartheid on the game in South Africa and how even now, more needs to be done at Cricket South Africa.
