That doesn’t change the fact that he is woefully out of shape for a professional sportsman!

That's it for Hety... I don't think he will play international cricket again.

Wasted talent... if he had discipline he could have been one of the best modern day batsmen in the region.

He is a sensible bloke like the rest i can only assume that he would work on the problem.I have to say that Indian and Pakistani food are cooked with more oil and Ghee than Caribbean food,isn't his wife Pakistani,it may be the type of food that he is eating,could be the reason for the Roti or Dhal belly.Those who have never had Asian sweets beware,the amount of sugar can kill non Indians .smile

Hety is Guyanese. His momanger is Guyanese. Not Pakistani.

They are from the country side... almost every home in the country side cooks roti and rice with different types of curries daily.

The type of food that he's eating shouldn't be an excuse. Motie is from Berbice too, I'm sure he eats similar stuff everyday yet he's one of the fittest cricketers in Guyana.

This is wrong. Why are we hating on differently shaped people.

Round is a shape too; the man is in shape.

Hety is the only person liable for his fitness.....as a sportsperson, he knows better than anyone, what required for maintaining him , at that level.....Kambli,Gascogne, Ronaldinho ... endless list....Talent without self discipline and dedication.....

Very short professional career...beckons....sad

Absolutely ridiculous comment. As you at this personal level - that fella is getting paid 1.2 USD this IPL compare to your lame ass.

Big Corn was always a big guy. Hetty wasn't.

big corn isn't just big. he's big to the point of being unhealthy, as the case of chest pains during the 2023 india series showed. hetty is unfit, and that probably explains partially why he has the attention span of a flea with autism, but he is not that unfit. its marginal

All kicks aside…..IPL appears to place a premium on fitness for their players.

If Hety is deemed to be fit enough by his franchise, and he not just in the squad, he is a regular starter, that’s good enough for me.

I don’t see unfit players on show at the IPL.

Hetmyer knocked 1 x 4 and 4 x 6 and scored a total of 42 in 23 balls WITH A BIG BELLY. Imagine what he can score IF he gets rid of the big belly!?

Why do so many people knock Hetmyer on this forum? He must have stolen a fowl cock (or something of value) from each of you who makes it his/her task to discuss every negative aspect. Old biddies would never stoop so low! Leave the damn man alone. Shame that the posters who criticize do not share their slim bodies as proof positive WHY this particular player ought to heed unsolicited advice offered here.

BTW, too many folks knock down roti and dhal. ALL sweets - Asian or otherwise - have sugar!!!! There is no mandate to 'kill non Indians'... rubbish!

I’m not knocking Hetmyer, I cared about him! He should have some and self respect for himself and his profession!
I’ve played club cricket well into my 40s just for the love of the game along with a competitive spirit and always took pride in my physical fitness.
I’m almost 61 years old with barely a paunch and I can guarantee you that at 50 years old I was in better shape than him.

He scored an impressive 42 in quick time in his first knock of the new IPL season.
