Daryll Cullinan, South African cricketer and coach
Daryll Cullinan
Daryll John Cullinan is a former South African first-class cricketer who played Test cricket and One Day Internationals for South Africa as a specialist batsman. He was regarded as a gifted batsman, as he was equally adept against pace or spin. Cullinan has said that his most important batting fundamentals were his balance, knowing where his off-stump was and getting his defence in order. He ended up playing 70 tests and 138 ODIs for South Africa. Cullinan's career Test average of 44.21 is only surpassed by ten South Africans with more than ten Tests. At the time of his retirement, he held the record for scoring the most test centuries for South Africa, with 14. Cullinan was a member of the South Africa team that won the 1998 ICC KnockOut Trophy.
