Makhaya Ntini speaks out on HIV/AIDS

As the ICC Cricket World Cup 2007 begins in the West Indies, UNICEF, in partnership with the International Cricket Council and UNAIDS has enlisted the help of the world's top cricketers to speak out about the impact of HIV and AIDS on children. Watch and hear what they have to say.

MAKHAYA NTINI is a South African fast bowler who spent his childhood in the Eastern Cape as a cattleherd. Now, as one of the game's leading performers with the ball, it could be said that he's seen both sides of life in his home country.

Because of the huge challenges facing South Africa due to the threat of HIV and AIDS, Makhaya Ntini was eager to join the International Cricket Council, UNAIDS and UNICEF in promoting the Unite for Children, Unite against Aids campaign.

If Pietersen had waited he would have got a chance. He will come to regret his decision as when all's said and done he only really cares about his own record (which isn't such a bad thing for test batsmen). SA look like they could be the number 1 test side over the next 3-5 years. They have the best pace bowling attack, a varied and strong batting line up and a good captain. England are the same mediocre side they've been for 25 years while SA are addressing their problems (playing spin).
