    The African e-Journals Project has digitized full text of articles of eleven social science and humanities journals.

REVIEW Mike Marqusee, Anyone But England, Cricket and the National Malaise, Verso, London, 1994 Vishnu Padayachee Regular readers of Transformation may wonder why the editorial collective agreed to the publication of a review of a book on English cricket. Some explanation may therefore be in order. We have over the years carried virtually nothing about the appropriation of sport in the larger process of South Africa's social and political transition, a subject which would be entirely consistent with the journal's editorial focus and policy. Gerry Mare's review of Albert Grundlingh et al's "Beyond the Tryline: Rugby and South African Society' {Transformation 27, 1995), is an exception. But this 'silence' on the subject of sport and politics still does not explain why we are reviewing a book on English cricket, by a 'deracinated Marxist of American Jewish (pi 1)' extraction. There are at least two answers to this. The first relates to Marqusee's overall project, that of trying to understand the relationship between cricket and society in England, especially in a period in which the game has been undergoing far-reaching transformation. The issues he raises and the conclusions he reaches in this regard are very relevant to recent South African experience, into which can be added the further complexities of cricket transformation in a era of rapid political and societal change.

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.

    SPRING 2020 NEWSLETTER of WALES ACO Follow us Join us Welcome to the SPRING Newsletter from WALES ACO-keeping you informed of developments in the UMPIRING and SCORING World around WALES. Dear Colleague. Following on from my previous letter I just wanted to give a further update in the Spring Newsletter. Firstly, I hope you are all staying safe and not finding the Social Distancing too difficult. I have today received an update from the ECB, which has been sent to all leagues as well, explaining the decision has been made to postpone any recreational cricket until 29 May at least. Whilst this is obviously disappointing it was to be expected. The full update can be found below. Personally, I think we will be lucky to see any local cricket at all in 2020 but as I say that is my opinion only. In these unusual circumstances then our Wellbeing is of paramount importance so I would encourage all of you to contact a colleague, Wales ACO twitter page, branch chairperson or our committee if you feel the need arises and if anyone has any ideas on how we can all stay occupied then please send to me and I will arrange to add them to our Twitter page to share with all. Obviously, I will keep you all updated with any information I receive from ECB or national ACO so you are kept in the loop. I would like to reiterate my hope that you and your family keep safe and we can then enjoy getting back on the field asap.

  • Testing Circumstances

    Testing Circumstances

    Testing Circumstances “By this time New Zealand were almost certain of victory, Hastings and Yuile having taken their side from a precarious 39 for 3 to 113”: Jamaica Daily Gleaner Brian Yuile, New Zealand v West Indies, Second Test, Wellington, March 1969 The West Indies’ Antipodean tour of 1968-69 began in December with a victory in the First Test at Brisbane. Two months later the tourists left Australia in shock having been beaten three Tests to one. Unused to setbacks, the press unleashed much criticism against the captain, Garry Sobers. Clive Lloyd thought Sobers had spent too much time on golf courses instead of in the nets looking after his team, but also considered the manager ought to have arranged training schedules and team meetings. Charlie Griffith felt the series was lost not because the West Indies were outclassed but because they dropped vital chances1. Sobers agreed, reckoning 34 catches were spilled in the series, by the end of which he was desperately trying to hide butter-fingers in the field. Thus, the West Indies arrived in New Zealand for three Tests seeming to Tony Cozier to “have neither the heart nor the energy for the tight month-long tour.” Clive Lloyd remembered “everyone was completely fed up and just going through the motions.” They were spurred out of lethargy in the First Test by a bold declaration. On the final morning the New Zealand captain, Graham Dowling, set the West Indies 345 runs to win, giving both sides a chance of victory. Finding their enthusiasm, the West Indies raced to an exciting five-wicket victory.
