From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 1942-43 South African cricket season saw only two first-class game. South Africa was involved in the Second World War and with the war came austerity and cricket matches played for the Currie Cup were considered too frivolous to be played in a country at war. There were only three first-class games played in South Africa during it. The two games played in 1942-43.
