Fleming excited to see Joburg Super Kings’ young guns mix it with ‘big dogs’
The Star
|September 17, 2025

So, what motivates the 52-year-old Kiwi to pack his bag and spend his festive season in South Africa, coaching the Joburg Super Kings in SA20?
“I was really keen to watch an All Black Test in South Africa” Fleming joked after the recent Season 4 auction in Johannesburg.
“No, seriously though, it's part of my DNA. It's a privileged job to be able to travel to places like this and be part of competitions that each have their own personality.
“It's at the cutting edge of the game, and to still be involved in the game after years of being able to trade with it is something pretty special.
