What CSA said
“I warmly congratulate our winners in all international, domestic, and amateur levels,” said CSA chief executive officer Pholetsi Moseki.
“The players have endured a lot during the past two years as the coronavirus pandemic challenged the conditions of our game. Our teams’ tenacity is seen in the improvement of our national teams and the opportunities that our pipeline continues to provide nationwide.
“A big thank you to our umpires, grounds staff and scorers, who ensured that CSA delivers another fantastic season. Our gratitude goes out to our sponsors and partners who have stood beside us in these challenging economic times. Your support has helped us keep our cricket and pipeline programmes thriving.
“We look forward to the upcoming action-packed season as South Africa gets to host the inaugural Women’s T20 World Cup and the Under-19 Women’s T20 World Cup in 2023. We will also be hosting the inaugural star-studded Twenty20 competition – a first on the African continent.”
CSA board chairperson Lawson Naidoo added: “This season validated the new CSA two-division domestic structure, which delivered an exhilarating blend of cricket in South Africa.
“We have seen our athletes giving their best in the field of play, spectacles that assured us that talent and skill are plentiful in our set-ups.
“On behalf of the board of Cricket South Africa, I congratulate all the winners. Congratulations also go out to all the nominees as these awards are a candid reflection of why cricket is such a powerful agent of change.”
