Chris Nenzani, who has served as President of Cricket South Africa (CSA) for the past seven years, has relinquished his position with immediate effect, the board announced in a statement on Monday. A new President and Chairman is set to be appointed at the annual general meeting on September 5.

After a seven-year term at the office, which started back in February 2013, Chris Nenzani has officially stepped down as the President of the Members Council and the Chairman of the board of directors of Cricket South Africa with immediate effect. Nenzani was reportedly set to resign from his position at CSA's annual meeting on September 5, but in what came as a change of plan, the CSA President announced his resignation on Monday, August 17. 

"Mr. Nenzani has led Cricket South Africa with dedication and astutely since 2013. Mr. Nenzani has provided valuable leadership, insight, assistance and direction in advancing the game of cricket with a focus on achieving transformation and access for the majority of the South African population," an official statement from Cricket South Africa read.

"On behalf of Cricket South Africa’s Members’ Council and the Board of Directors we thank Mr. Nenzani for his contributions to Cricket South Africa and for being a loyal servant to the game of cricket. We wish him well in his future endeavours and we are sure that he will continue to contribute to the game of cricket."
