South African team needs a major overhaul, for starters they need to get rid of Amla on top and find some decent talent in their batting department. 

Cricket is always considered a white sport in non Asian countries. If the interest of white population goes down in the sport, so does the standard of game.

LOL theres hardly any white population in SA anymore. There are like 20% out of which 10% are in extreme poverty

That's exactly the reason for their decline. Native Africans are mostly into football and athletics while white SA population is into cricket and rugby. I don't know how well is SA rugby doing.

I used to think that racism was thing of old generation and it's extinct today, but I was wrong! It exists today but in a very subtle form.

I think after smith, abdv, dale steyn south Africa have stuggled to rebuild the team. They have all the ability to bounce back and put up a decent 11, i doubt that your white person losing interest theory holds any truth in terms of south African cricket.

A South African in my acc doesn't even know that WC is going on.

Zimbabwe cricket is a good example, after Heath Streak and other white players went away their standards shot down.
