He was a leading Test player when his country was banned from international cricket and he is now manager of the South African Test team which has been re-admitted to the world arena. In this book, he traces the history of South African cricket from the last official international (against Australia in 1970) through to their re-instatement in the World Cup of 1992. He includes details of the various rebel tours, the Currie Cup, Kerry Packer's World Series and all the behind-the-scenes activity which attempted to keep South African cricket alive during a difficult period.
