Johannesburg – Proteas management says the team has mapped out a new way forward following the completion of a five-day culture camp in Skukuza.
The camp, which saw 32 players as well as the coaching and support staff come together, ended on Saturday.
It has been a testing time for cricket in South Africa.
Cricket has been placed at the centre of the Black Lives Matter (BLM) conversation ever since seamer Lungi Ngidi voiced his support of the movement at the beginning of July.
His stance was criticised by a small group of former Proteas, which opened the door for an emotional conversation around race in cricket that has only gathered in momentum.
The culture camp, which was originally meant to take place ahead of the suspended Sri Lanka tour, presented an opportunity to take stock.
It included the 16 contracted members of the national men’s team as well as the high-performance squad.
In a statement CSA said: “The camp was aimed at bringing players as well as the coaching and support staff of the national and high-performance teams to align on objectives and plot the road ahead with a new cricket season not too far from beginning.”
