Yet another product of Bloemfontein's Grey College, I amon the threshold of what promises to be a rewarding careerin international testcricket. I was still a schoolboy whenI mademy maiden 50 on first-class debut against Michael Atherton's England tourists in 1995/96; and three seasons laterI became only the 18th player representing my countryto total more than 1,000 runs in a domestic season. Indeed, only five of my fellow country players, have betteredmy 1,070 runs. I played two Tests as an opening bat against Zimbabwe at the beginning of thea recent testseason, but lostmy place in the side whenGary KirstenandHerschelle Gibbsreturned from injury.I was a late call-up formy country'stour of Sri Lankarecently whenHerschelle Gibbswas withdrawn from the team.
You can find his statsand where I got this question from<a target=_top href="http://www.cricket.org/link_to_database/PLAYERS/RSA/D/DIPPENAAR_HH_03003978/"> HERE

But hang around though... we're a pretty flexible lot.

Sorry, the connection is slow today.... we have a thunder storm here - the first decent rain in months.
Regarding the molester Randall, I understand he applied to be released the other week but was given a firm answer of no.
