runs. An Australian test team was scheduled to tour South Africa for the 1975-76 season. The tour was called off "with reluctance" according to Tim Caldwell, the chairman of the Australian Cricket Board. Australian Prime Minister Gough Whitlam stated that if Australia were to send a team to South Africa, it was likely that Australian sides would not be received in the Caribbean or Indian subcontinent and that teams from these countries may no longer visit Australia. The next games for a representative South African side therefore took place on Derrick Robins third tour to South Africa in March and April 1975. This DH Robins' XI was again an international side. Captained once again by Brian Close, it included the following players from Robins' preceding tour: Bruce Francis (Australian), John Shepherd (West Indian), Roger Tolchard, Younis Ahmed (Pakistani). In addition, the following also toured: Malcolm Francke (Sri Lanka/Australia), Geoff Greenidge (West Indies), Tony Greig (South African-born England player), Jackie Hampshire, Frank Hayes, Eddie Hemmings, Terry Jenner (Australia), John Lyon, Clive Radley, Stephen Rouse, John Steele, Stuart Turner, Max Walker (Australia).

Also Peter Swart played in the one-day match, but not the first-class match. The first-class match featuring the South African Board President's XI was dominated by an innings of 155 by South African legend, Eddie Barlow. DH Robins' XI was skittled out thanks to hauls of 5 for 41 from Pelham Henwood in the first innings, and 5 for 44 from Vintcent van der Bijl to leave the South Africans winners by 260 runs. More remarkable than the scores, however, was the inclusion of Edward Habane and Sedick Conrad, both black, in the South African squad. This was the first time coloured South Africans had played first-class cricket against a touring side since a South African Malays team played an English touring side in the 1890s. The 40 over representative match was a low-scoring affair, with Barry Richards' 68 helping South Africa to a
