A time when full contact sport no longer holds centre stage. It is a passage of time when the art of sport is appreciated over the physicality of competition. Today, latent skills and blossoming talent has a place amongst our youth and the generations to come. It is now the subtle brilliance of deftness, the art of touch, mastery of stroke and pure strategic guile that has turned cricket into the sport of the future. Today cricket is the stage for mental agility and peak physical condition. It is purity of both mind and spirit that produces champions. The re-invention of cricket globally has rejuvenated a desire to master the ultimate game. A sense of camaraderie pursued by both men and women alike. It’s now a passion for gamesmanship, integrity, honesty and fair play. It is a game that can be embraced and played or supported by everyone. We can’t undo the past, but we can shape the future. We do what we do today in cricket, for what will happen TOMORROW.

The Pakistani captain persuaded two of his bowlers to bowl illegitimate deliveries at precise times of the match while he batted out a specific over without scoring a run. Gamblers with inside knowledge bet profitably on these particular occurrences.

The first recognised Test Match, between sides from Australia and England, took place in 1877 though there is record of a match between the USA and Canada in 1844. Test Matches are now spread over 5 days with each side having two innings with three results possible, a win for either side or a draw. There can be between 1 and 7 matches in one ‘Test Series’ between the same countries. Matches were not always time limited and the last ‘timeless Test’ took place between South Africa and England in Durban in 1939.

Eric Hobsbawm once called sport one of the most significant practices of the late nineteenth century.

  • 7 Beyond the Nation? Colour and Class in South African Cricket
    7 Beyond the nation? Colour and class in South African cricket Ashwin Desai and Goolam Vahed …cricket does not reflect the age. It is the age... (James 1986: xi) The sToryline of souTh Africa cricket, like the broader narrative of the political defeat of apartheid, often gets told in beguilingly simple terms. Mandela met De Klerk. Graeme Pollock met Basil D’Oliveira.1 Apartheid had been stumped. Past and present merged. The covers were pulled off to reveal a level playing field. Another ‘small’ miracle. Critical voices of dissent were drowned out by the over-arching language of nation-building. Free from www.hsrcpress.ac.za download There was an iconic image following South Africa’s loss to England in the World Cup semi-final in 1992, before apartheid was officially dismantled: Steve Tshwete, the then head of the Sports Desk of the African National Congress (ANC), and Kepler Wessels the then captain, ‘in an emotional embrace after South Africa had bombed out of the semi-final against England on a ludicrously unjust rain rule’ (Alfred 2001: 158). For Luke Alfred, this moment illustrated that: …cricket in South Africa has allied itself to reform both without and within, and if the road to post-apartheid nirvana hasn’t always been easy, it is the road that cricket has chosen to take…The new team 176 Race to transform Book 16-2-10.indb 176 2/16/10 4:43:21 PM were part of the new post-apartheid nation, and rooting for that team, in some admittedly insignificant way, was to keep casting a vote for change, for a nation qualitatively different to that of the apartheid state.

  • Match Fixing
    Match fixing In organised sports, match fixing, game fixing, race fixing, or sports fixing occurs as a match is played to a completely or partially pre-determined result, violating the rules of the game and often the law. Where the sporting competition in question is a race then the incident is referred to as race fixing. Games that are deliberately lost are sometimes called thrown games. When a team intentionally loses a game, or does not score as high as it can, to obtain a perceived future competitive advantage (for instance, earning a high draft pick) rather than gamblers being involved, the team is often said to have tanked the game instead of having thrown it. In pool hustling, tanking is known as dumping. In sports where a handicap system exists and is capable of being abused, tanking is known as sandbagging. Thrown games, when motivated by gambling, require contacts (and normally money transfers) between gamblers, players, team officials, and/or referees. These contacts and transfer can sometimes be found, and lead to prosecution, by law or by the sports league(s). In contrast, tanking is internal to the team and very hard to prove. Often, substitutions made by the coach designed to deliberately increase the team's chances of losing (frequently by having one or more key players sit out, often using minimal or phantom injuries as a public excuse for doing this), rather than ordering the players actually on the field to intentionally underperform, were cited as the main factor in cases where tanking has been alleged.
