ABSTRACT

South African cricket was awakened to the crudity of racial exclusions when former Proteas fast bowler Makhaya Ntini revealed that he would rather run to the ground and back than take the team bus to avoid his white team-mates who, he felt, were isolating him because of the colour of his skin. Ntini’s revelation of the pain of loneliness was followed by a plethora of similar ones by Black cricketers, sparked by young Proteas player Lungisani Ngidi’s call in early July 2020 for the team to consider supporting the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement. This prompted visceral condemnation from several white former Proteas players. Against this backdrop, this article explores the relationship between whiteness and cricket in contemporary South Africa.

板球更衣室内:南非脱衣服白

摘要

南非板球被前普罗梯亚斯的快速圆顶硬礼帽Makhaya Ntini透露,他宁愿跑到地面并返回而不是乘坐公车避开他认为是孤立他的白人队友,这是因为种族排斥的残酷性引起了人们的注意。皮肤的颜色。恩蒂尼(Ntini)揭示了孤独的痛苦,随后是黑人板球运动员大量类似的经历,这是由年轻的普罗梯亚球员Lungisani Ngidi在2020年7月初呼吁团队考虑支持黑人生活问题(BLM)运动引发的。这引起了几位白人白人普罗蒂亚球员的内在谴责。在此背景下,本文探讨了当代南非白度和板球之间的关系。
