Who ever said 'real men don't cry'? Seeing Gilly shed tears just shows how much he loved his mates. He is absolutely broken. But he still carries on so professionally...

I'm a South African and these two were my idols growing up. I remember going to watch a test match in Johburg. Australia lost to South Africa. After the match we waited for the Australian team to go onto the bus, Roy and Gilly came to sign my bat and take a photo with me. They were so nice and I will cherish that moment for the rest of my life.

Two absolute legends of the game. One a nightmare for the bowlers and other for the batsman.. RIP legends 😢

[manohark]

They are legends whose memories will stay with us forever...one is a magician with the ball and the other is a magician in the field and brutal with the bat... being an Indian always enjoyed watching Australian cricket especially during 2000-07..
