Bacher Lauds Bavuma and Markram, calls for more Tests in SA
Post
|June 18, 2025
FORMER captain and veteran administrator Dr Ali Bacher envisioned South Africa as a united cricketing nation with representation from both black and white players.
-
He played a vital role in the country's return to international cricket in 1991, following the end of apartheid.
The 83-year-old was one of the happiest in the Rainbow Nation on Saturday when Temba Bavuma and Co. beat defending champions Australia at the Lord's Cricket Ground in London to lift the ICC World Test Championship title.
Although he lauded Bavuma and Aiden Markram's heroic effort to bat the Australians out of the match, his concern is the future of Test cricket in South Africa, as the nation has been playing fewer matches compared to England, Australia, and India.
South Africa played 13 Tests, including the final, in the WTC 2023-25 cycle. England played 22 Tests, Australia 20, and India 19.
The WTC winners will not play a home Test match until October 2026, so there won't be much change in the new season. The Proteas will play 14 Tests, whereas Australia will play 22, England 21, and India 18.
