  • The South African national cricket team was meant to tour Australia over the 1971–72 Australian summer. However, the tour was cancelled after protests from the anti-apartheid movement; in making this decision, the Australian Cricket Board had been influenced by the protests that accompanied the 1971 South Africa rugby union tour of Australia. South Africa's selected squad was: * Batsmen – Ali Bacher (capt), Hylton Ackerman, Lee Irvine, Graeme Pollock, Barry Richards * All rounders – Eddie Barlow, Dassie Biggs, Peter de Vaal, Mike Procter, Clive Rice * Fast bowlers – Peter Pollock, Pat Trimborn, Vince van der Bijl * Spin bowlers – Grahame Chevalier * Wicketkeeper – Denis Lindsay Barlow subsequently withdrew for business reasons and was replaced by Arthur Short. The tour was replaced by a tour from a Rest of the World XI, which included the Pollock brothers and Ackerman. As a result of the tour's cancellation, South Africa's exclusion from international cricket was formalised. South Africa would not tour Australia again until the 1992 Cricket World Cup, and would not make another full tour until 1993-94. (en)
