Testing Times tells the story of South African cricket's struggle to find its own identity and to transform itself from whipping boy to world power during the post-war cricket era through cricketing greats such as Dudley Nourse, Eric and Athol Rowan, Hugh Tayfield and Jack Cheetham. The title also follows the impact of the new republic in the early 60s on SA's international cricket status and subsequent expulsion from the Imperial Cricket Conference, as well as the 1963/4 tour of Australia under the threat of having her Test status downgraded when a young, brilliant side made the trip and squared the series.
