Crisis in South Africa: No clarity on task team details after CSA-SASCOC meeting

The details of the task team that will look into Cricket South Africa's administrative and financial affairs remain a mystery despite CSA meeting with the South African Sports Confederation and Olympic Committee (SASCOC) on Monday evening.

The meeting took place four days after SASCOC instructed CSA's board and executive to stand down after nine months of what SASCOC called "maladministration and malpractice," which demanded the mother body's intervention.

SASCOC is a legislatively-created body under which all South African sports federations operate. It wrote to the ICC at the weekend to clarify that its involvement in CSA does not constitute government interference.

SASCOC has stressed that it hopes to work with CSA's Members' Council - the body made up of the 14 provincial presidents which holds the highest decision-making authority in CSA - despite the Members' Council opting out of a meeting with SASCOC last Friday. Instead, CSA held a joint sitting of the Board and Members' Council at the weekend and met SASCOC on Monday.

CSA called the meeting "a step forward towards a collaborative approach in the interest of good governance and executive operations." SASCOC was unavailable for comment. Any hope of obtaining further detail was stymied the three representatives from the CSA members' council were due to address the media on Tuesday but the briefing has been pushed back to Thursday, and is scheduled to be a joint affair with SASCOC.

It is still not clear whether the task team will be finalised by then, even though SASCOC told ESPNcricinfo on Friday that they would announce the members of the task team imminently. The task team is crucial because it could decide who is in charge of cricket in South Africa until such time as SASCOC's inquiry into CSA is complete. SASCOC had initially budgeted a period of one month to complete its investigations.

In the meanwhile, CSA's forensic report, which it used to dismiss former CEO Thabang Moroe, has still not been made fully available to the Members' Council who saw a high-level summary at the weekend. SASCOC and South Africa's sports ministry have also demanded to see the report in full, and SASCOC have rejected CSA's invitation to view the report after signing a non-disclosure agreement, believing the report should be made public.
