Former Proteas left-arm spinner, Paul Harris, is one of South Africa's most underrated cricketers, his contribution to the national team has not got the recognition it deserves despite taking 103 wickets in 37 tests and being an integral part of the team that held the number one ranking in all formats. "Harro" speaks of his journey in cricket, from starting off in Fish Hoek to making his test debut, dismissing Sachin Tendulkar on his debut in 2006, opening up about the highs and lows of his career, deciding to go Kolpak and much more and while he isn't actively involved in cricket these days, he still mentors players like Proteas spinner Keshav Maharaj.
