CAPE TOWN - Former champion Proteas fast bowler Makhaya Ntini has claimed that he ran to the ground instead of taking the team bus to avoid "loneliness".
"It's those things that I had to find a way to overcome them. I found a way and that became one of the weapons of my life whereby I would go to the driver of the bus early morning and I would give him my bag and then I'll say to him, I'll meet you at the ground. I then put on my running shoes and ran to the cricket ground, and then the same thing on my way back," Ntini said in an interview with SABC on Friday morning.
"I'm running away from that loneliness . You could see if I'm sitting at the back and the rest of them in the front ..." "I was forever lonely. The first thing that comes to mind when I think of loneliness, is to not have someone knocking on your door and say, let's go for dinner. That's loneliness," he said.
