South Africa re-joined the ICC in 1991 after its two rival organisations, the South African Cricket Union and the South African Cricket Board, merged to form the United Cricket Board of South Africa. Their first tour was hastily arranged after Pakistan’s visit to India was cancelled. The team, captained by Clive Rice, did not use the `Springbok’ moniker and wore blue caps with a UCBSA logo.
The team played for the first time in England in 1994 in a series that started at Lord’s; coached by Mike Procter and captained by Kepler Wessels, it triumphed in that first Test by the huge margin of 356 runs.
Although Wessels scored a century, Brian McMillan scored the most runs in the Test and was South Africa’s Player of the Series. Allan Donald who took five wickets in an innings went on to repeat this feat in 1998 when Jonty Rhodes in turn scored a century; black ribbons were worn as a tribute to the recently deceased Jackie McGlew.
Donald Bradman’s record as the scorer of the highest innings by a visitor – 254 set in 1930 – was finally overhauled in 2003 when Graeme Smith muscled his way to 259 and Makhaya Ntini took ten wickets in the match to beat England by an innings and 92 runs. South Africa maintain an unbeaten record at Lord’s since readmission.
