The Proteas came out of their culture camp at Skukuza in Mpumalanga in August with a new adopted identity, and team director Mark Boucher has said he and his assistant Enoch Nkwe cannot wait to have the players lay the foundations for a new era.
The 2019/2020 season was prematurely ended in March when the Covid-19 outbreak forced the team to cut short their limited-overs tour to India‚ while local cricket also ended abruptly a few days later. The Proteas have plummeted to an embarrassing sixth in the International Cricket Council Test rankings and are ranked fifth in the two white-ball formats. Boucher said he wanted to see some improvements.
“We want to get on the field and start playing. It’s been a long break. I don’t think the players have had this long a break since school days.
