Graeme Smith: The South African Cricket Titan Who Stood Tall

Introduction

In the annals of cricketing history, few names shine as brightly as that of Graeme Smith. A giant of the game, both in stature and achievements, Smith's journey from a young prodigy to the iconic captain of the South African cricket team is a story of leadership, resilience, and unyielding determination.

Early Life and Introduction to Cricket

Graeme Craig Smith was born on February 1, 1981, in Johannesburg, South Africa. From an early age, his passion for cricket was evident. He attended King Edward VII School in Johannesburg, where his talents with the bat quickly caught the eye of coaches and selectors.

A Record-Breaking Debut

Smith made his international debut for South Africa in 2002, and what a debut it was. At just 21 years old, he became the youngest captain in the history of South African cricket. This decision raised eyebrows, but it was a sign of things to come.

Leadership and Captaincy

Under Smith's leadership, the South African cricket team reached unprecedented heights. His tenure as captain, which lasted for over a decade, was marked by remarkable achievements, including series victories against the world's top teams and a No. 1 ranking in Test cricket.

Iconic Moments

Smith's career was punctuated by iconic moments, none more memorable than his heroic performance with a broken hand in a Test match against Australia in 2009. This indomitable spirit encapsulated his dedication to the team's cause.

Consistency and Records

Smith's batting records are a testament to his consistency and skill. He scored over 9,000 runs in Test cricket, making him one of the leading run-scorers for South Africa. His partnership with fellow South African legend, Jacques Kallis, became one of the most formidable duos in the history of the sport.

Retirement and Post-Cricket Career

In 2014, Graeme Smith announced his retirement from international cricket, marking the end of an era in South African cricket. Since then, he has ventured into various roles, including commentary and cricket administration.

Beyond Cricket

Smith's influence transcends cricket. He's known for his philanthropic efforts, particularly in promoting sports among disadvantaged communities in South Africa. He continues to inspire young cricketers through his academy and various initiatives.

Conclusion

Graeme Smith's legacy in cricket is one of unwavering leadership, unmatched determination, and an unbreakable spirit. His towering presence on and off the field has left an indelible mark on South African cricket and the sport as a whole. He will forever be remembered as a true giant of the game, a captain who led by example, and a symbol of South African cricketing excellence.

Should the U.S. Modify Its Stance Against the Taliban in Afghanistan?

As discussed in a prior post, on August 22, 2023, the U.N. Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) reported that since the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan in August 2021, it had committed at least 800 human rights violations against Afghans who had assisted the U.S. In addition, that U.N. agency also noted that the Taliban had imposed the most radical gender policies, denying education and…

Markram was brave, tactically astute while leading South Africa in T20 World Cup: Graeme Smith

Aiden Markram was ‘brave’ and ‘tactically astute’ while leading South Africa to its first-ever appearance in the final of the T20 World Cup, which it narrowly lost to India last week at Barbados, said former skipper Graeme Smith on Wednesday. South Africa had a near-perfect campaign in the T20 World Cup under Markram’s captaincy with its only defeat coming in the final when India pipped the…

S2 E6: "The Age of Steel"

The Cybermen take control of London as the population is enslaved and the Doctor and his friends become fugitives.

Episode: S2, E6: "The Age of Steel" Date: May 20, 2006 Writer: Tom MacRae Director: Graeme Harper

Doctor: 10th Companion: Rose Tyler, Mickey Smith Main Villain in This Episode: Cybermen

I feel like I always have so much less to say about a two-part episode because I say most of it in the first post, and it’s the same here. I also usually find myself losing interest part way through the second part, and I don’t know if that just says something about my brain’s ability to focus or my attention span, but who knows.

I love Andrew Hayden-Smith as Jake in these two episodes, and he’s always the character I remember most from them. Him and Mickey make a great team, and I completely forgot how it concluded, with Mickey deciding to stay in the parallel version of London to help save the world! I can imagine a series of comics or something with Mickey and Jake saving the world from Cybermen attacks, like their own little spin-off.

This got me thinking too much about parallel universes and imagining what a parallel me would be doing in another dimension. Would I be more successful than I am now? Would I live somewhere completely different? Would I be rewatching Doctor Who? The possibilities are endless.

On July 7, 1960, a typical school day turned into a parent's worst nightmare for Freda Thorne. That morning, she bid farewell to her 8-year-old son, Graeme Thorne, never imagining it would be their final goodbye. Little did she know, Graeme would become the first victim of a ransom kidnapping in Australia's history, sparking a nationwide tragedy that would forever change the landscape of lottery procedures.

Graeme was supposed to meet family friend, Phyllis Smith, for the school run, but when she arrived at their designated spot, he was nowhere to be found. Concern turned to panic as Freda reported her son missing to the police, initiating a desperate search that would grip the nation.

The chilling reality of Graeme's abduction became starkly evident when Freda received a phone call demanding £25,000 for his safe return, accompanied by a horrifying threat to "feed the boy to the sharks" if the ransom wasn't paid by 5PM. Sergeant Larry O'Shea, posing as Freda's husband Brazil Thorne, engaged with the kidnapper, unaware that Brazil had recently won £100,000 in the Opera House Lottery, a fact that had been widely publicized in the media.

Despite efforts to comply with the kidnapper's demands, including instructions to prepare the ransom money, the ordeal took a grim turn. Graeme's empty school case was discovered near the meeting spot with Phyllis Smith, followed by the discovery of his lunch bag and school books miles away.

The agonizing wait for Graeme's return came to a devastating end when his lifeless body was found on August 16, 1960, in Seaforth, Sydney. Wrapped in a tartan blanket, bound with string, and gagged with a scarf, Graeme had been killed within 24 hours of his abduction.

Forensic analysis uncovered crucial evidence linking Stephen Leslie Bradley, a Hungarian migrant, to the crime. Despite fleeing to Britain, Bradley was apprehended in Colombo, Ceylon, and subsequently found guilty, receiving a life sentence. His death in prison on October 6, 1968, provided little solace to a grieving family and a nation in shock.

Everton That

Losing out on the Champions League because of a roof tile.

Conceding a goal because Yobo had stopped to tie his shoelaces.

Using three goalkeepers in one game.

Having lost the the first keeper during his warm-up when he fell over the "keep off the grass" sign.

The youngster who fell off the bus and broke his leg on his way to a trial at the club.

Bournemouth 2018. That shithouse Smith getting sent off and Keane scoring to take the lead within minutes of each other and for one brief moment I experienced joy. Then Baines said "fuck joy" and gave away the softest penalty you'll ever see.

On the subject of Bournemouth waves furiously.

Might as well mention Newcastle 2-2 as well. Sorry Dad.

Thomas Mhyre losing a contact lens.

Going on an unbeaten run against United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and Spurs but losing out on Europe because the coach decided to get sentimental against a relegation bound Fulham. No, honestly Marco you should totally start a creaking Jags against Mitrovic what's the worst that could happen.

Your striker being unavailable because he's currently banged up in Barlinnie is a perfectly normal thing that could happen to any perfectly normal club.

Graeme Sharp being bitten by his own dog.

Mo Johnston getting attacked by a rocking horse.

Kanchelskis

Samuel Eto'o played for Everton.

Materazzi crying. (honourable mention for him casually cradling a baby at his first press conference)

Throwing your toddler at a bemused Lyon player.

Neville Southall's sit in protest.

Neville Southall's "crap" interview explaining said protest. (and the reaction of Norman Whiteside)

The self proclaimed Best Referee in the World being brought back for one match only and doing an absolutely wonderful job.

Grim Reaper Vs Moyes. (I know it was a publicity stunt but it counts)

Mumbles something about a headlock and the resulting sassy police statement.

Howard Kendall gathering the players in a circle on the pitch post Coventry like naughty schoolchildren.

I know they'd left the club by then but accidentally blinding your best friend in a shooting incident feels uniquely Everton.

Inadvertently revealing you've signed Jonny Evans because you haven't turned down the mic on a training video.

Jonny Evans signs for Manchester United.

No one eats Duncan Ferguson's fish.

Jonestown but make it Scouse.

"Or Satan as I like to call him". The greatest moment in any football phone-in ever. (actually there was the one who got cut off for saying something about a non Everton player and a watch belonging to their granddaughter but)

Sammy Lee's rallying battle cry.

Ellesmere Port. iykyk

Mr Testicles

Davide Ancelotti speaks Italian. He's like so amazing. Swoons.

Leon Osman revealing in his autobiography that Martinez didn't bother defending corners in training because they didn't count as real goals. Which you know seems sort of relevant to the whole Martinez experience.

It taking a good year or so for this to become a thing because clearly nobody had bought that autobiography.

This absolute monstrosity

From the pages of doctor who magazine”

Liberation of the daleks collects the official fourteen episode introductory story for the new doctor. David Tennant plays the new doctor, officially designated as number 14, but as he is the 15th regeneration since hartnell changed to troughton that makes him technically the 16th doctor. * see list at end! Anyway, this story takes place in the first hour of the new doctor's regeneration, starting with him entering the tardis after his regeneration at the end of the brilliant power of the doctor. The story is fun and well written by Alan barnes, a veteran of who comic strips. Lee Sullivan's art is exquisite throughout and this is a welcome addition to the doctor who magazine collections. The next collection out is the second Jodie book, one which is long overdue.

* regenerations. From the timeless child to the newest incarnation. A rough guide.

If we assume the first child we see is the original body and if we assume that each child we see tectum (not sure of the spelling!) with is consecutive then the doctor's time line becomes

The timeless child - original body

The timeless child - 1st regeneration

The timeless child - 2nd regeneration

The timeless child - 3rd regeneration

The timeless child - 4th regeneration

The timeless child - 5th regeneration

The timeless child - 6th regeneration

The timeless child - 7th regeneration this is the older child who we see joining the division. He is the first division agent doctor

Division agent doctor - multiple regenerations ending with the brain of morbius doctors:

Christopher Barry

Robert banks Stewart

Chris Baker

Philip hinchliffe

Douglas camfield

Graeme Harper

Robert Holmes

George gallaccio

Then...

Jo Martin

Two possible ways here. Jo Martin tries to run from division. She is eventually captured, regenerated and continues to work for division until granted retirement with the final face before hartnell which is George. Or jo is the final agent before hartnell, runs, gets captured and is granted retirement under conditions of memory wipe, which seems to be the answer as indicated in the Flux storyline of 2021. Either way...

The timeless doctor - post division retirement

The doctor 1st body post retirement - William hartnell

The doctor 1st regeneration post retirement - Patrick troughton

The doctor 2nd regeneration post retirement - jon pertwee

The doctor 3rd regeneration post retirement - Tom Baker

The doctor 4th regeneration post retirement - Peter davison

The doctor 5th regeneration post retirement - colin baker

The doctor 6th regeneration post retirement - Sylvester mccoy

The doctor 7th regeneration post retirement - Paul mcgann

The war doctor 8th regeneration post retirement - John hurt

The doctor 9th regeneration post retirement - Christopher eccleston (10th doctor)

The doctor 10th regeneration post retirement - David Tennant

The doctor partial 11th regeneration post retirement - David Tennant

Metacrisis human doctor remaining 11th regeneration energy - David Tennant

The doctor 12th regeneration post retirement - Matt smith (13th doctor)

The doctor/curator future regeneration post retirement - Tom baker

The doctor 13th regeneration post retirement - Peter capaldi

The doctor 14th regeneration post retirement - Jodie Whittaker

The doctor 15th regeneration post retirement - David Tennant

The doctor 16th regeneration post retirement - Ncuti gatwa (17th doctor)

The doctor's number has now been a bit of a moot point since the war doctor/Tennant second regeneration.

Devils vs flyers

My moms word of the game is fuck

#NJDevils  starters versus Flyers:

→ Clarke-Hischier-Bratt

→ Hughes-Marino

→ Kahkonen

First period

Something brewing between Kurtis MacDermid and Travis Sanheim... so keep your eyes on that matchup

Graeme Clarke nearly just scored his first NHL goal but goes off the post after Nico Hischier made an incredible play through the middle of the ice.

Erik Haula going to the box for interference as he "trips" Nick Seeler, who had just rammed Dawson Mercer into the boards.

Looked more like interference, if anything. But also it could have been incidental contact.

Haula mouthed "What?!" when the ref blew the whistle.

Smith going to the box now for a high-stick.

So #NJDevils  will be be down to 3 players for 1:13

. Hischier, Siegenthaler and Marino start the 5-on-3 for #NJDevils 

Haula out of the box and right into the play.

#NJDevils  Hischier, Marino and Siegenthaler played the entire 1:13 down 3-on-5.

#NJDevils  kill off both penalties.

We got a Siegnthaler and Nico fight!!!

End of one.

#NJDevils  and Flyers deadlocked in at zeros.

Shots 11-6, PHI

Second period underway!

A point-blank save by Kahkonen on Owen Tippett keeps the score at zeros.

Palat back on the ice with Hischier and Bratt.

1-0 Flyers

Konecny was able to breakaway out of the neutral zone and released that shot so fast.

Shorthanded and #NJDevils  have another minute on the PP.

Palat-Hischier-Bratt on that last shift.

Got another Nico fight!

Have to imagine Travis Green will shorten his bench with #NJDevils  trailing.

Palat-Hischier-Bratt

Meier-Tierney-Mercer

Bowers-Haula-Holtz

Foote, Clarke and MacDermid have only played a handful of shifts in this season period.

End of two.

#NDevils trail the Flyers 1-0.

2: ✖️ Konecny (Laughton, Seeler)

Shots 17-11, PHI

Third period

#NJDevils  starting the second with Palat-Haula-Mercer

A strange bounce off the back boards catches everyone by surprise and the puck lands right on Travis Konecny's stick. He had a brilliant opportunity buy Kahkonen was sharp enough and quick enough to make the save. But that was a 😳 moment

Holtz semi break… fumbles the puck.

#NJDevils  pull Kahkonen for the extra attacker... 1:30 left

Devils lost 0-1
