The death of a writer, if not anything, is perhaps the greatest indicator of the turning of an epoch. Especially when he's hailing from a land that has historically found itself in the clutches of an intangible and rather inescapable cultural crisis.
Finally, you can say Hope is no longer a dangerous thing for South African cricket. Hope is the best of things, the most beautiful of things. South Africa, world champions, has a good ring to it #WTCFinal
In 2018, as an analyst and writer with huge expertise in T20 cricket, @fwildecricket (co)-wrote a book with a chapter called "Why RCB Lose".
He has then gone on to join RCB as their head of analysis, and win the IPL.

Part of why Cronenberg rocks is because he doesn't really give you any answers, you're not even sure if he's critiquing anything, he's just like "here's some things that I'm thinking about right now haha" and then you just have to deal with that. Pure artist shit
This is why being a movie nerd is better than being a sports fan (I’m both). There’s a billion movies and you’re pretty much guaranteed to keep finding great ones for the rest of your life. Your sports team however could be garbage/mid for 100+ years straight.
