Apartheid Sanctions: caused a lotta Dutch Afrikaan cricket talent to be Lost ....
[/quote] There has never been a case where any South African cricketer  pre  Apartheid that were critical of the inhumane  Racist  system .
They were all racist to  the core and they really believed that the system would  continue in perpetuity preserving their white privilege.
Did Clive  Rice ever spoke out against it?

Well didn't know about him but may his soul rest in peace and I hope he was never one of those who supported the apartheid system in South Africa.

You are a cricket fan and don't know who Clive Rice is? For shame. Youth's today, eh?

Nice touch from Stuart Broad in honouring Clive Rice during the third Test at Edgbaston by wearing a black armband. Rice was a joy to watch play for Nottinghamshire. His talents were undeniable and a shame the world didn't get to see him on the biggest stage of all. In my view, he was without doubt the greatest cricket to never play a Test match.

He was never test captain. He only played in our first three ODIs and was controversially dropped before the 1992 World Cup. I suppose really he was lucky to be picked at all at the age of 42.

Although I often saw him interviewed, I never saw him play as I only started watching cricket during the 1992 world cup. Judging by his stats it seems like I missed seeing someone very special in action.

A typo,i never intended to type that "test" part.
He had a good first class record ??
Might have been the reason for is selection.I tried for some YT videos on his cricketing action and play,couldn't find it all.
