South Africa star batsman Jacques Kallis crashed his car into a gate in the early hours of Tuesday but escaped unharmed, a team spokesman told AFP, denying that alcohol was involved. Kallis, who scored his first Test double century in a victory over India that finished Monday, will not miss any Proteas practice or matches as a result of the accident in Cape Town, said team spokesman Michael Owen-Smith.
"Alcohol was not an issue in (the crash)," said Owen-Smith. "The (local) police didn't feel there was a need for any breathalyser or any kind of blood test and so that's the end of the matter."
