After taking the wicket, a jubilant Ntini raised his shirt to reveal a t-shirt with the handwritten words "Mdingi Express 300 wickets" - Mdingi being the name of the village in the Transkei where he grew up. Ntini joined Allan Donald and Shaun Pollock as the third South African to achieve this milestone.
