	Zulu sues over SA Foxtrot Oscar (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		He was a colourful and confrontational figure on the pitch, and Lance Klusener has shown that he's lost none of his appetite for combat by planning to sue the SA board after he missed out on selection for the tour of England.
		People react to adversity in different ways, of course, but Klusener's plan for legal action against his national cricket board for alleged loss of earnings is less a case of taking the biscuit than making a run for it with the entire tin stuffed under your jacket.
		Klusener was also quick to brush off accusations made by Graeme Smith, South Africa's captain, that the side was better off without him as he was not a team player.

	GOLDEN DEBUTS : LANCE KLUSENER : Cricketfundas.com
		Lance had got 8 wickets in his test debut, a feat no other South African has ever done in his life.
		Klusener is a household name now, and he is synonymous with the tag of dependability, be it with the ball or the bat or in the field: he gives you 100%.
		He further went on to win more laurels for his side, including their famous wins in the 1999 world cup, where he took them on the threshold of making history; that SA did not make it to the Final is another matter.

		Klusener is taking legal action against the United Cricket Board of South Africa and pursuing the matter with the Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration (CCMA), the BBC reported.
		Klusener is now claiming for loss of earnings, as he did not seek any county contracts under the impression he would be re-employed by South Africa only to find himself omitted from the squad.

		Lance Klusener has a chance to get "back on the bus", according to South African captain Graeme Smith, who earlier this year accused the all-rounder of being a "disruptive influence".
		Klusener was Tuesday named in a South African one-day international squad for the first time since he was dropped after the 2003 World Cup.
		Klusener claimed he had been told by the selectors that he was being rested from a tour of Bangladesh which preceded the England trip and had been led to believe he would be picked for England.

	Lara inspires Windies to strike first blood - smh.com.au

		But once Klusener was out caught by Windies skipper Carl Hooper off the bowling of Vasbert Drakes in the final over the game was up, and the 25,000 crowd was stunned into silence.
		But Klusener made matters worse by failing to cross with Nicky Boje who was on 21, leaving the incoming tailender Makhaya Ntini to face the final deliveries.

	Mondaypaper > Scholars ponder Klusener's lot (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Monday Paper recently sought comment from a few scholars at UCT to share their expertise and thoughts on the axing of Lance Klusener from the Proteas squad, and his subsequent case against the United Cricket Board of South Africa (UCB) in front of the Commission of Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration (CCMA).
		Klusener is claiming compensation from the UCB for failing to renew his contract, even though, he says, he was told that it would be done.
		Basing their case on performance, for example, could be iffy (Klusener was after all - with the bat at least - one of the better performers during the World Cup, bar his eight-ball, one-run plod in the decisive clash against Sri Lanka), said Le Roux.

		Chasing a target of 279 in 49 overs and notwithstanding a typical Lance Klusener innings of 57, South Africa fell short by 3 runs to lose the opening match of the World Cup.
		Klusener's 57 off 38 balls revived memories of the 1999 World Cup, where he was man of the tournament.
		When both fell the task was left to Klusener, who brought the partisan crowd to voice but failed to give South Africa a dream start to their World Cup campaign.

	South Africa In Semifinals After Beating New Zealand
		That question was answered resoundingly Thursday as Klusener's string of irresistible success with the bat ended, yet his team still managed to become the first team to qualify for the semifinals of the Cricket World Cup.
		Klusener's dismissal for 4 after he was promoted from eighth to third place in South Africa's batting order at least gave him a batting average.
		Until Thursday, Klusener had scored 210 runs without being out in the World Cup, and his average of 214 is twice as high as that of anyone else in the competition.

	Cricinfo - Players and Officials - Lance Klusener
		Few would figure Lance Klusener to be a No. 11, but that's where he batted after breaking into first-class cricket as a fast bowler.
		Few would pencil Klusener in at the top of the order either, especially after his dismal form in West Indies (2000-01) and Australia (2001-02).
		Contrary to his reputation as an unrefined slogger, set in stone at the 1999 World Cup, Klusener is one of the most skilful players in the game - which makes him one of the most adaptable.

	The Klusener verdict
		However, while I agree that nobody is bigger than the game, I am also of the opinion that Klusener should have been given a hearing so that UCB could assess his point of view or what he had to say on the matter.
		To have literally given Klusener the 'Boot' without giving the man a chance to express his side of things, I feel, UCB have done grave injustice to a man who has tremendously contributed to the cause and popularity of the game of cricket.
		I hope Klusener does find favour with the UCB and things are settled for the benefit of one and all.

		Lance Klusener is to take legal action against the United Cricket Board of South Africa (UCB) for unfair dismissal after his exclusion from the team following the World Cup.
		According to BBC Sport, Klusener claims the UCB told him he was being "rested" for the Bangladesh tour, but would be given a contract for the Test series against England, for which he was not, in the end, required for.

		Klusener smashed two sixes and 13 fours as he rescued South Africa from a disastrous 34 for five to 253 all out, after Sri Lanka captain Sanath Jayasuriya had won the toss for the fifth consecutive occasion.
		The 28-year-old left-hand Klusener held the South African innings together in partnership with vice-captain Mark Boucher, who helped him in a sixth wicket stand of 124, and then with the tailenders with whom he raised a further 80 runs to raise the total to some respectability.
		Klusener was harsh on the spinners, hitting Muttiah Muralitharan and Upul Chandana for a six apiece, as he mixed caution with aggression to break the stranglehold the slow bowlers had on the batting.
