Former South African leader Hansie Cronje died in a plane crash on June 1, 2002. Cronje had been a known professional among the cricketing circles who troubled Sachin Tendulkar with the ball.

However, the prominent cricketer falls apart when he was named in a fixing scandal which rocked the cricket world in 1999.

However, late Cronje led the Proteas in 138 ODIs in which he sealed 99 wins before losing out on 35 games. Moreover, he has an impressive winning percentage of 73.37.

Three games ended on a no result and with a single game ending on a tie. Late Cronje is listed tenth among overall skippers with most matches as a captain in ODI cricket.
