Sports Minister Nathi Mthethwa will this week ban Cricket South Africa from being the authority that runs the sport in countrySouth Africa Sports Minister Nathi Mthethwa will this week ban Cricket South Africa (CSA) from being the authority that runs the sport in country after the organisation’s provincial presidents failed to vote for the necessary amendments to allow a restructuring of CSA’s administration. The International Cricket Council (ICC) too, will not take kindly to government’s intervention. Mthethwa’s office has kept the ICC informed about the affairs around CSA, but the international body has the right to ban South Africa. Originally, when the Members Council took that decision, nine presidents agreed to the changes. A minority of the Members’ Council have yet again shown itself to place self-preservation ahead of the interests of the game and indeed, the national interest.”
