Afro Caribbean cricketers

It is unclear that Philander’s selection had anything to do with his race at all.
Philander has a better bowling average than Dale Steyn
South Africa’s premier fast bowler and indisputably the best bowler in the world.......
However, Dale Steyn is white.

Given the history of South African cricket, the witch hunt might be more fitting in the opposite direction.
Why, for example, did only 6 black African players and 23 coloured, Indian or other racially categorised players
represent the Proteas in their green and gold strip up to 2013?

Why, by this same date, were 83 players out of a total of 112 to represent their country in this format
white although black Africans make up 79.2% of the population;
coloured and white people each make up 8.9% of the total
and the Indian/Asian population 2.5%?
