You have to beat Bangladesh first in their own patch. Not as easy as you may think. You could always do what Australia did and cancel for "security reasons". The way we play on the sub-continent it might have been a good call. How the fuck does India get 13 Tests in a home season? The most England and Australia get is 6 Tests in a home season. Money talks I suppose Years ago they sent Bangladesh to Australia in the off season and played Tests in North Queensland and the Northern Territory. After embarrassingly easy results to Australia, that was never tried again. ![]()

![]() Racism is still alive in South African cricket.
CSA sets selection targets for national teams Quotas for SA Cricket 45 years ago they were kicked out of international cricket. Betcha fuck all happens now though Looks like the Poms might get a few more players coming their way. They rarely come to Australia though. Not good enough. ![]() ![]() ![]()

![]() Well unless they only select a “coloured” team for low ranking fixtures and then pick players based on solely ability for the real competitive stuff SA cricket will suffer. Which is a pity as they produce good cricketers and should have a strong presence at International level.
I remember a few years back and SA were going on a tour to Oz. Bowler Charles Langeveldt (classed as coloured) hadn’t made the Training Camp held in SA before selecting the squad to tour. The squad was then selected but later reviewed owing to injuries to some players. The final squad was selected and all the players were white, so the SA Sport Minister intervened and ordered at least one coloured player to be added. Langeveldt was told he would be selected so he promptly retired from International cricket as he believed SA sportsman should only be selected on ability not colour or race. A young inexperienced “coloured” batsman went instead and had the piss absolutely ripped out of him by Warne and Co in every game he played. Watched an interview with former SA Captain Graham Smith and he was asked if SA could ever field an International team of only white cricketers. He just burst out laughing then added “No” at the end. Says it all really. |

![]() Question for the Convicts. Gillespie is leaving Yorkshire (can't blame him for that) and returning home to the Penal Colony. Is he being lined up to be the next Oz Head Coach?
