The Biggest Man in Cricket sits down with former Proteas speedster Brett Schultz, one of South African cricket’s most unforgettable quicks. Mentored by Kepler Wessels in Eastern Province, his story is one of raw talent, relentless aggression, and an impact that far outweighs his short international career.
From terrifying Sri Lankan batsmen to becoming a cult hero in the mid-90s, Schultz brought fire to the Proteas attack during a pivotal time in the country’s cricketing history. Injuries may have cut his playing career short, but the legacy is loud. This is a story of passion, pace, and playing with purpose. A must-listen for cricket fans who love the heroes who gave it their all.
