Nicknames :
Polly and Ginger Ninja. Of these, Polly is
certainly the more popular one. It's really cute and actually has a very jolly
feel to it 
Height : 6' 3". Apparently, Shaun always wanted to be a batsman like his uncle Graeme. But he grew tall and then tried his hand at fast bowling (which paid off!!) That is the reason why he is such a good all-rounder. Also worth mentioning is that Shaun played hockey just like Jonty Rhodes before he got into cricket!
University Degree : Shaun has a Bachelor's degree in Commerce. Seldom do players who come into the international arena at a young age complete their studies. But Shaun did it and he is proud of it!
Marital Status : Married to Tricia Lauderdale. They are a lovely couple!
Married On : May 6, 2000 at St Martin In The Fields Anglican Church in Durban North
Enjoys : Listening to music, playing golf, reading and going out with friends.
Greatest Influence : God, family and his mentor-Malcom Marshall. Shaun is known to be a very religious person and this according to him helps him to stay focused and on the right path. His family has always been a priority and this is so evident in all his actions and interviews. And in Shaun's words - Malcom Marshall will always remain a source of inspiration for him.
