CRICKEEDA

In 1970, the ICC voted to suspend South Africa from international cricket indefinitely because of its government's policy of apartheid, an overtly racist policy, which led them to play only against the white nations(England, Australia, New Zealand), and field only white players. The ban was lifted in 1991 and after that Proteas never looked back and produce many great players like Jacques Kallis, Graeme Smith, AB DE Villiers and many more.

Top 6 South African Born Players Playing For Other Nations 1. Kevin

Unlike the previous World Cups, this time they didn't have teams like Scotland, Netherlands, Namibia, Ireland, Zimbabwe, etc. Competition was high and it was a  round robin format.  Every team had to face each other unlike the group stage one which has own advantages if NZ isn't kept in group where AUS is there.
