Hansie Cronjé (Frank Rautenbach) captained South Africa's spectacular re-entry onto the international cricket arena. Under his leadership, and after four years of hard work, South Africa secured first place, devastating Australia's vice-like grip on the top position. Hansie's easy smile, confident attitude and upright lifestyle made him a much-loved household name and sports hero.

Then, rumours of match-fixing and bribery stunned the world, and worse, Hansie confessed to taking money from Indian bookmakers. His reputation tarnished and banned from the sport he loves, Hansie began the long and difficult road from despair to forgiveness and restoration.
