A Cancerian by sun sign, he makes a deadly combination of an opening fast bowler along with Allan Donald. He is an attacking fast bowler who seams the bowl and get bounce even on flat wickets. He is also a very aggressive and fearless batsman. His fielding is wonderful too as he has a beautiful strong and accurate throwing arm. Pollock initially played for Warwickshire in 1996, and hence has grown as a top quality ‘allrounder’. After the ouster of disgraced Hansie Cronje he has taken over this huge responsibility exceptionally well and has led South Africa to some memorable wins.
