Former Western Province cricketer Sedick Conrad passed away on Tuesday, 11 March 2025.
Conrad played 10 first-class matches from 1971 to 1975 – and hit successive centuries against Transvaal in 1972.
He is the father of Proteas Test coach Shukri Conrad.
“We are saddened to hear of the passing of Sedick ‘Dickie’ Conrad earlier today,” read Tuesday’s statement from the Western Province Cricket Association.
“On behalf of the WPCA board, management and staff, we extend our deepest condolences to Shukri Conrad and family on the passing of your beloved father.
“Sedick was not only a cherished father but also a respected figure in the cricketing community. As an ex-cricketer, he contributed to the sport we all hold dear, and his legacy will continue to inspire those who follow in his footsteps.
“We know how much he meant to you, Shukri, and we share in your sorrow during this difficult time. His memory will live on through the values and passion for cricket that he instilled in you.”
