"...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..."

Were Habane and Conrad black or were they coloured (ie mixed-race, according to apartheid terminology)? Should "coloured" be replaced by "non-white" in this passage? JoeConrad (talk) 04:47, 1 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
