  • Cricket Memorabilia Society Postal Auction Closing at Noon 10
    CRICKET MEMORABILIA SOCIETY POSTAL AUCTION CLOSING AT NOON 10th JULY 2020 Conditions of Postal Sale The CMS reserves the right to refuse items which are damaged or unsuitable, or we have doubts about authenticity. Reserves can be placed on lots but must be agreed with the CMS. They should reflect realistic values/expectations and not be the “highest price” expected. The CMS will take 7% of the price realised, the vendor 93% which will normally be paid no later than 6 weeks after the auction. The CMS will undertake to advertise the memorabilia for auction on its website no later than 3 weeks prior to the closing date of the auction. Bids will only be accepted from CMS members. Postal bids must be in writing or e-mail by the closing date and time shown above. Generally, no item will be sold below 10% of the lower estimate without reference to the vendor.. Thus, an item with a £10-15 estimate can be sold for £9, but not £8, without approval. The incremental scale for the acceptance of bids is as follows: £2 increments up to £20, then £20/22/25/28/30 up to £50, then £5 increments to £100 and £10 increments above that. So, if there are two postal bids at £25 and £30, the item will go to the higher bidder at £28. Should there be two identical bids, the first received will win. Bids submitted between increments will be accepted, thus a £52 bid will not be rounded either up or down. Items will be sent to successful postal bidders the week after the auction and will be sent by the cheapest rate commensurate with the value and size of the item.

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.

  • KZN Cricket the Inner Ring August Second Innings
    THE INNER RING AUGUST 2020 | SECOND INNINGS Dear Dolphins family I hope all women had a special day on the 9th of August, on behalf of all men I want to wish you happiness, health, success and prosperity in the years ahead. I also want to thank everyone for the wonderful birthday wishes. I had such a blessed time and am truly grateful. Powerplay During the past few weeks it has been very easy to get pulled into the negative narrative regarding South African sport, and especially cricket. Much like everything in life, cricket can be a very cruel place at times. A gruelling place where every cricketer, coach, umpire, scorer, groundsman and administrator at some point in his/her career will feel hard done by, misunderstood or misjudged. Thankfully, also much like life, these tough times make the good times feel even better. This is probably one of the reasons why we love this sport. I am pretty sure that each one of us can join the narrative with a challenging story of our own, on what feels like the whole world transpired against us to not reach our dreams. Here is a summarised story of how my cricket playing career unfolded… When I picked up a cricket bat for the first time about 34 years ago, cricket was a type of sport and not a political game. Since my first mini-cricket experience my ultimate dream was to represent South Africa. I remember playing in the street with my two older brothers, and the rest of the neighbourhood, with my sister keeping score.

  • KZN Cricket the Inner Ring May 2020 Second Innings
    THE INNER RING MAY 2020 | SECOND INNINGS Dear Dolphins family Hope lockdown is treating you all well. Powerplay I have set myself various goals for the lockdown period, of which one of them was to read more. I have always enjoyed reading about the journeys of successful people and their habits, sacrifices and lessons learned along those journeys. One such fascinating journey is that of Robert Iger, CEO of the Walt Disney Company from 2005 to February 2020. “The ride of a lifetime” is a fascinating reflection on his innovative way of thinking and relentless journey towards excellence. “I talk a lot about “the relentless pursuit of perfection”. In practice this can mean a lot of things, and it is hard to define. It is a mindset, more than a specific set of rules. It is not about perfectionism at all costs. It is about creating an environment in which people refuse to accept mediocrity. It is about pushing back against the urge to say that “good enough” is good enough.” – Robert Iger Thank you all for the positive feedback received last week. It was good to at least have a quick e-catchup and confirmation that you are still going strong. I value your input and therefore urge you to please continue sending your feedback, ideas and thoughts. THE INNER RING Feedback from last week’s “inswinger” – Who is your favourite Dolphins player of all time? The names of Jonty Rhodes, Lance Klusener, Hashim Amla, Shaun Pollock, Malcolm Marshall, Barry Richards, Mike Procter, and the current Proteas, Keshav, David and Andile came up quite frequently.

    Sussex CCC vs Leicestershire Specsavers County Championship The 1st Central County Ground, Hove Friday 5th – Monday 8th April 2019 Day One David Wiese hit a counterattacking half-century, before overseas debutant Mir Hamza excited with a spell of skillful swing bowling that brought him three wickets as bowlers dominated on the opening day of Sussex's Specsavers County Championship match against Leicestershire at The 1st Central County Ground. Leicestershire seamer Tom Taylor took career-best figures of 6 for 47 as bowlers dominated on the opening day of their Specsavers County Championship match against Sussex at Hove. Taylor took three wickets in six balls to help reduce Sussex to 38 for 5 after an uncontested toss, before David Wiese counter-attacked with 51 to which took Sussex to 173. Hamza then picked up three wickets as Leicestershire slumped to 59 for 5 before Lewis Hill (40 not out) and Harry Dearden (26 not out) fought back to take their side for 131 for 5 when bad light ended play 11 overs early. Chris Wright - making his debut for Leicestershire after joining from Warwickshire over the winter - gave the visitors the perfect start when he had Phil Salt caught behind off his fourth delivery before Taylor took centre stage. He went around the wicket to the left-hander Luke Wells who edged to third slip for a duck before grabbing three wickets in six balls, dismissing Tom Haines off a leading edge, Harry Finch caught behind and Sussex skipper Ben Brown, who was bowled off an inside edge. South Africans David Wiese and Stiaan van Zyl counter-attacked in a stand of 64 before van Zyl was bowled via a bottom edge by Wright for 28.

  • “Last Zulu Warrior Standing,” a Case Study in the Cultural History of Sport
    The “Last Zulu Warrior Standing,” A Case Study in the Cultural History of Sport: Cricketer Lance Klusener, Racial Stereotyping and Ethno- branding in South Africa Benedict Carton and John Nauright accepted International Journal of the History of Sport April 2015 In a pivotal match of the 1999 ICC World Cup Lance Klusener crouched with bat in hand, ready to battle Australia at Edgbaston in Birmingham, England [told by cricketers/fans that Edgbaston suffices—no ‘Cricket Ground’ needed]. Radio and television across the world hummed with anticipation. In previous fixtures Klusener led South Africa to hard-fought victories while sportscasters regaled listeners with stories of how his hitting evoked his childhood nickname “Zulu.” His immersion in Shaka’s culture as a white boy from Natal, they said, was the secret of his prowess at the crease. During the Edgbaston semifinal he was unbeaten, “pounding Aussie bowlers with his baseball-style backlift.” By the ninth wicket, he was rousing cheerful “mayhem” in the packed oval. Zulu brought his squad level with their arch-rival but during the final over he could not achieve “His godly act.” Disaster struck, one run from elevating his team, the Proteas, to the pinnacle of cricket. Klusener stroked the ball to mid-off and 1 2 sprinted. Not watching, his partner Alan Donald was run out, leaving the match drawn and ending his country’s hopes of making the final. Despite this devastating outcome, Klusener sealed his reputation. From South Asia to the West Indies, he became the one and only “last Zulu warrior standing” in global sport.1 The all-rounder Klusener rose to glory by making “legendary bowlers Glenn McGrath, Shoaib Akhtar, Shane Warne, Wasim Akram and Javagal Srinath seem as threatening as a five year old with a sponge ball.” On “the biggest cricketing stage of the world” Klusener “had the time of his life.” Along the way he earned Player of the Series in the 1999 World Cup.2 Landing back home in June of that year, he stepped from the largest throng “ever [to] welcome back a hero” in a Johannesburg airport.
