The Proteas’ new ‘Government of Cricket Unity’

“IF IT AIN'T broke, don't fix it” That's certainly how I felt about the Proteas Men's team.

Head coach Shukri Conrad has been responsible for all selections since his appointment and the ICC World Test mace perched splendidly in Cricket SA’ trophy cabinet at their Illovo office is the result.

Conrad’s coaching philosophy has fostered an environment where honesty and open communication thrive. Players are able to express themselves with clarity regarding their roles being a cornerstone of the team’s culture.

Unlike in previous years, where players were often left in the dark following squad announcements, the current setup allows individuals to gauge their standing within the team’s future without the fear of unpleasant surprises.

This is a refreshing change that strengthens the collective resolve of the squad moving forward. So, why then appoint a Convenor of Selectors?
