Indians dominate chess, Female tennis .. Black woman  Serena Williams ... Golf... a black man  Tiger  Woods ... Next Yachting.
In spite of all the barriers to blacks in certain fields , when the opportunity opens , they excel and yes there should be a Quota for Blacks in these sports

But lets stick to cricket .
I believe  that Blacks are a physiologically ,Biologically , psychologically and mechanically superior to any other people in this sport  .
The dominating WestIndies team of years gone by prove this beyond a doubt.
You may ask about the present windies team and I would answer that it is an aberration which will soon be righted and the Westindies team occupy the nos 1 spot again 
Major cricket  records are held by blacks in the West indies
Highest runs in a game.. Lara
Highest  aggregate .. Lara ,  discount Tendulkar since his is achieve through longevity
Highest wicket taker Courtney Walsh  .. Discount Murali  and Warne as their wickets are mostly against tail enders Walsh rips apart the top order  and the best  batsmen and one of his wickets is worth  two of the others
These are some reasons that Blacks are not provided the opportunity at the grass root level in South .
Africa . It could make the white man a rarity on  the South African team

That's it ?what a meek  response , no personal attack ?
The Australians achieved  their domination through sheer cheating and  intimidation with the acquiesces of  Bucknor and as soon as Bucknor was removed from the scene  , the Aussies became  an ordinary also ran team.
The windies championship team was admired and loved by cricket lovers all over the cricket world and the same cannot be said of the Aussies as they were hated and despised

Another thing Blacks and especially Blacks in the WestIndies or rather Westindian cricketers are aesthetically more pleasant  to look at  on the cricket pitch  be it bowling or batting and may I add that  I include Rohan Kanhai  in this category as I saw him many times.

Some things cannot be dignified with a response.

Normally making the sort of statement made, is deemed, bigoted, racist and....by the masses.

One should be left to their own devices when they prefer baseless sensationalism rather than informed discourse.

This is really the lowest of the low.

i have always believed the best qualified should always get the job but chances must be given to a minority with talent.

Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.

The blacks are the majority but the issue is about redressing the balance at the grassroots in my view otherwise the few blacks who have struggled up the system will have nothing to follow them when they retire.

Once the system is fair and operated on merit then the best team should always be selected whether all white, black or whatever. CSA is not there as yet and maybe you of Gina can comment on the grassroots work in SA.

well csa has to spend the money  on infrastructure in the black townships. cricket has to be brought to the young guys.

ChristinaIt is time for a full evaluation and accountability to the people of this region for the disastrous batting performance of the West Indies Cricket Team. We cannot disregard what all of us witnessed and endured in the last three test matches. This is not about our players, administrators, or any individual; it is an entire system that is failing, and together, all of us must fix it now. This cannot continue into another series; we must not allow it to.(15.07.2025, 15:52)(15:52)0
