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.

Perhaps the most perplexing aspect of AT&T Stadium, otherwise known as “Jerry World,” is the glare from the sun that bursts through the windows and shines directly onto the field. Time and time again the glare has impacted players’ visibility during games, yet Jerry Jones refuses to make any changes to account for the sun.

Rather than install curtains, Jones has previously said he feels it’s a home-field advantage to have that type of stadium factor impacting games. Well, the glare ended up benefitting the Chiefs early into Thursday’s Thanksgiving game, as a pass from Dak Prescott to George Pickens fell incomplete, at least in part due to the impact of the sun’s glare.

SerenaThis batting performance by the West Indies in the second innings blew me away. I kept closing my eyes and then rubbing and opening them again and sat transfixed as I watch that unbelievable partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope. What a magnificent performance by these two! It just goes to show that patience, determination and effort can go a long way to improve the performances of the West Indies team. Let us hope that this effort by West Indies batsmen would not be a one-off performance, but will be the beginning of a renewed effort to improve the performances of the team, going forward.(13.10.2025, 09:28)(09:28)0

WarrenJameis Winston is asked about being named QB3 on the Giants' roster behind Russell Wilson and Jaxson Dart:

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.

I focus on what I would love. And what I would love is for this team to have success."
