The Cricket South Africa (CSA) on Friday extended Graeme Smith’s contract as its director of cricket for two years. Smith will now remain with the Proteas until the end of March 2022. In December last year, Smith was appointed as the acting director of cricket until the IPL next year. However, on Thursday, BCCI suspended the IPL till further notice due to ”evolving global health concerns”. “Graeme has made a huge impact with his energy, expertise, hard work ethic and characteristic determination and passion he has brought to the position during the six months he has served in an acting capacity,” said CSA Acting Chief Executive Dr Jacques Faul.”Although there is certainly a great deal of work to be done, as reflected by the performances of our various national teams, he has certainly put our cricket on an upward trajectory that provides light at the end of the tunnel,” he added.Faul explained the number of events that happened during the first short stint of Smith with the CSA.
