“The quality of the candidates was exceptional and I would like to express my appreciation to the sub-committee of the board as well as my colleagues on the board who have brought this matter to a highly satisfactoryu00a0conclusion.”

It has been reported that the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) did not want Lorgat to head Cricket South Africa.
