Heinrich Klaasen Reflects On His Historic Ton: Here's What He Said
"The franchise puts a lot of money into this. They have been around 15 years into this. We brilliant cricket through the last three and a half games. The team gave us an incredible holiday in the middle of the season. It was a tough season. I didn't do what I wanted to do despite getting a few good starts."
"The straight boundaries are very short and the other boundaries are 50 or 60 metres. I got my trajectory a little better today and I am very pleased. I have worked a lot. I have to spend a lot of time in the nets making sure I am picking the right areas."
"I wanted to bat up. We always lost a couple of wickets at the start but we got better. I usually go inside in the 6th or 7th over and that is my role. Sometimes it works out and sometimes it doesn't."
