Entire Cricket South Africa Board Resigns

The entire board of Cricket South Africa has resigned, the organisation announced on Monday. "All independent and non-independent directors have now resigned," CSA said in a Twitter post. In a statement, CSA said the resignations had been accepted and were with immediate effect, with the exception of three directors who would remain in place "to ensure the continuity and stability of the organisation" until an interim board was appointed. Monday's announcement followed the resignation of six board members, including acting president Beresford Williams, on Sunday.

The resignation of the four remaining board members clears the way for the appointment of an interim committee.

The latest development came one day before a deadline threatening intervention by sports minister Nathi Mthethwa.
