‘CRONJE WAS GREEDY’ — DONALD

PREMIER South African fast-bowler Allan Donald says he is stunned by his former skipper and close friend Hansie Cronje’s revelations about match-fixing. “My whole career with him just keeps flashing past me since I found out,” said Donald, who plays for the English county side Warwickshire. “It’s incredible. It’s just greed really that’s made him do this,” said Donald, who plays county cricket for Warwickshire. Donald said that Cronje’s parents are “praying very hard” and said that the time ahead for Cronje and his family is going to be “very hard.” Donald said he never got involved in match-fixing himself, saying that he has never been approached, and that if he was, he “would do something about it.”
