Atul Kahate

Hansie Cronje has become the third South African after Allan Donald and Shaun Pollock to take 100 wickets in Limited Overs International (LOI) cricket. He has also completed the 'double' of 1000 runs and 100 wickets, and is the 16th player and second South African after Pollock to do so; Pollock having completed his feats in the previous match.

Here is Cronje's bowling career record so far, updated to the end of the fifth match in the New Zealand-South Africa series.
