After shuffling three wicketkeepers in seven years, the selectors eventually turned to Jacobs at the age of 31 for the South African tour of 1998.
He proved reliable and durable.
Unorthodox but effective behind the stumps and with the
bat.
His left-handed batting has been valuable at number seven in a team with a fragile tail.
