Name: Amit
Message: We'll miss you Hansie!!
Accordingly he was the best captain after steve waugh, in the modern cricket.
There was a lot of talent in this man and he had proven it many times. I know that he did a big mistake, and bought a bad repute to his team, but hey, we all are human beings and we all do mistakes. some big some negligible, and we learn from our mistakes. Unfortunately, Hansie didn't get a chance to learn from the mistake he did.
I pay my condolences to his family and everyone who knew this remarkable sportsman.
Regardless of what he did, I'll always remember him as a World Class Cricketer and a good role model.

Message: I feel we Indians must appreciate the fact that Hansie had the courage to accept his mistakes and to cooperate with the inevitable.
On the contrary our politicians who inspite of being caught redhanded on video tape and not willing to admit any wrongdoings on their part.Even Bill Clinton being the President of the USA admitted his illegal affairs before the people and was able to get their forgiveness.So I don't see any reason why we shouldn't forgive Hansie.

Message: It is unfortunate that Cronje, South Africa’s most successful skipper will be forgotten for the good things he did and will be remembered only for the wrong reasons.
Name: rajesh kushwah
Message: No doubt what hansie cronje did was wrong but I feel all of us do some wrong thing at some time in our life that doesn't means that a person should be banned for life time and forget all the good things we should be Objective and give punishment for the wrong thing a person is doing and give reward for the good thing he is doing. I am very sure Hansie was having many good Qualities of a successfull Captain and I will always remember him for that.
Name: Gaurav
Message: Hansie Cronje was one of the best captains in the world. He was a brilliant batsman, fielder and a useful bowler also. Yet he will be remembered more for his part in match fixing scandal. Actually his life gives us a very important lesson. No matter how great and strong we are in our field, our one silly mistake can wipe out everything. We should not forget that great power brings great responsibility.

Message: I alway's admired Hansie. I think we all were too harsh on him. After all he gracefully accepted his mistake. When ppl like Azharuddin who should have been lynched and hanged, move freely in this world, we were wrong to Hansie. He was a good captian and a good sportsman
I feel sad that he had to die the way he did. The world has lost one good man in my opinion

Message: Indeed!What a tragic loss for the cricketing world.Although he may be remembered for all the wrong reasons, in this hour of grief, lets give him a break. How many cricketers do we have of the calibre of Hansie. A great motivator and captain, it would be unfair to deny him credit for SA's rapid ascendancy in the cricketing arena.
Indeed, life goes on and what the heck, was he the only one embroiled in this mess.
RIP my friend, cricket will surely miss you.

Message: cricket world has lost one of its best captain. really i admire him for his sportivenes / maintaining coolness in crisis situation.
everyone in this earth will have some weekness. i personally feel in hansie's case things were exegerated.
Hansie's greatness is his confession. in this world we have a lot of correpted players with no ethics. no one will come forward with a confession and the so called enquiry commissions / agencies will not touch them also.
Hansie's bad luck. his own confession made him more guilty.
may his soul rest in peace.

Message: I think I shall remember Hansie Cronje as one of the greatest players and captain of this era. This is more so because of the way he led his life... made a mistake and paid for it... that takes a lot of guts. I wish his family, his parents , wife (kids, if any) and all that are dear to him... the very best.. I know that I am one of the most fortunate persons' to have watched him play at his best.

Name: Mohan
Message: It takes great courage to accept what he did.
And he was punished for that with a life ban.
There are still many people who indulge in these things and are not caught or punished.
We should always give a man, who has accepted his crime and punished for that, another chance.
But fate did not agree.
May his soul rest in peace and may his dream of South Africa winning the World Cup come true next year.

Message: I feel sad about his death
Name: mehernosh
Message: It was indeed a very tragic end to the short life of probably the most successful cricket captains in the history of the game. A life which was always going to be tough after that scandal of match-fixing, which unfortunately dragged him into it.
And there are some people who say that it was greed which took the better of him, which was the reason he accepted money. but i dont think thats true. i think the reason he might have accepted the money could be some external threat or something. come on, a person who earns crores through playing and endorsements doesnt need to take money for match-fixing. and no one in the world would betray his country like that. remembering him as an excelent cricketer would be a small but significant tribute.
let's all pray to God to grant his family the courage to withstand this tragic loss.

Name: v.krishnan
Message: hansie will be remembered as the captain
who made the south african cricket team
a world beating team. people should not
forget that initially after the south africans came out of the boycott, they
were not so strong and lost to india and
the west indies.
it was the cronje/woolmer combination
which took them to the top.
match fixing was a minor flaw in hansie which got magnified and overshadowed
his achievments.
Name: V.Hariharaprasanna
Message: Though the skipper had done some wrong deeds, we cannot forget him bcos of his positive attitude in the field. Any great person should meet one obstacle in their life. The same way Cronje met it. Thats all. But no body can deny his great captainship and his service to south africa. So i remember him for his achievements and not for his slipped timings in his life.

Message: Hansie's fault lay only in the fact that he got caught. There are so many others who are freely moving around.
However, if we leave aside this chapter, few would disagree that he was one of the greatest sportsman ever. His indomitable spirit put South Africa on top of cricketing world. His premature exit has led to South Africa's decline.
The whole world will miss him! May his sould rest in peace. Hansie you are a Hero in my eyes!

Name: Amol Nabar
Message: Hansie Cronje - South Africa's best and most successful captain! The news of his death left me stunned. Life for him after that fateful India tour must never have been the same again - what with Betting allegations that brought his career to an end and left him so isolated that he probably never had the urge to live any more. He admitted to have taken money, but never fixed a match or underperformed and yet was penalised, probably too severely. I am sure there will be several Indian or other players who have taken money, fixed matched and underperformed and yet, have not been apprehended - probably never will be. But then, that's life!
The world has lost a great cricketer!!

Message: hi........my hearty condolences to Mr. Hansie Cronje's family....Whatever has happened over the year is a forgotten story.Frankly speaking Croje was one of the best skippers ever. Well everyone does mistakes and no one here is a saint.what we shuold rally appreicate Croje is for his brave acceptance of his wrong doing. I personally feel 75% of the players are involved in match fixing and ther was just this one guy, who came forward and accepted his wrong doing..He has stood above the others for sure. May His soul rest in peace.
Name: Lepaksha Nagappa
Message: he was the man with determination of achieving his aim inside the feild, and also he was having that ability of carrying the game away from the opponents, whatever the scandals happened with him shouldn't have effected his career, as everybody will be doing something or other mistake in life knowingly or unknowingly, and those who didnot allow him to play were not having any rights to take him away from the game, anyhow past is past, the man who changed the way of playing in ODI's is no more, i am not having any words to pay tribute to him other than pray for the peace for his soul
My last salutes to Hansie
