ABSTRACT The issues of race, class and transformation in South African cricket are examined through a life history of Haroon Lorgat, a player and administrator in pre- and post-apartheid cricket. Lorgat’s journey provides seminal insights into the sport as his life spans the dusty playing fields of apartheid cricket, to the top order of the sport as CEO of the International Cricket Council (ICC), and then returning as CEO of Cricket South Africa (CSA). It offers an opportunity to understand the changing relations of power in global cricket while also showing how this impacted on the space for manoeuvre for those batting on home ground, as he tried to negotiate the uncertain corridor of racial transformation while ensuring that the national team continued to win on the field.

在种族隔离后的南非板球中谈判(不确定的)权力走廊

摘要 通过种族隔离前后的板球运动员兼行政人员 Haroon Lorgat 的生活史,研究了南非板球的种族、阶级和转型问题。Lorgat 的旅程为这项运动提供了开创性的见解,因为他的一生跨越了种族隔离板球尘土飞扬的运动场,作为国际板球委员会 (ICC) 的首席执行官成为这项运动的最高级别,然后返回担任南非板球 (CSA) 的首席执行官. 它提供了一个了解全球板球运动中不断变化的权力关系的机会,同时也展示了这如何影响那些在主场击球的人的机动空间,因为他试图在不确定的种族转型走廊进行谈判,同时确保国家队继续在场上取胜。
