South Africa Cricket Tour 2006 - REVIEW

"...Traveling in such a group does have its advantages. One gets to stay in first class hotels and in the case of Durban and Capetown the same hotel as the South African and Australian teams.

South Africa Cricket Tour 2006 - TOUR POETRY

Lots of noise from the locals around, our world record was gone - it was theirs!..."

There is only one seat left, at the back of the truck..."

- AST Tour Member Murray Williams shares his "Ode to Kerry O'Keefe".

"...It's odd. The quality and the enjoyment derived from a cricket tour is influenced more by off-the-field events than the contests themselves. One can take for granted that there will be some great cricket, enthralling encounters, excellent company, comfortable accommodation and the first-rate management that AST always provides. But what transformed the South African tour into an unforgettable experience involved more than a few good games of cricket...."
