Denny Crane Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Cricketing legend who played his part in decency's fight against apartheid has died. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/cricket/15803140.stm A book I can recommend on the D'Oliveira affair is Peter Oborne's "Basil D'Oliveira: Cricket and Controversy" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The White Cockade Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 My favourite cricketer Not the greatest technically but strong as an ox I even supported England back when he was playing! Played a lot of good stuff well into his forties and was maybe a few years older than he let on as he hid his age when first moving to England as he was 30 or more and didn't think the Counties would sign an unknown that old RIP Basil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
