Cricket South Africa (CSA) has voiced its disappointment after Cricket Australia (CA) decided against the Australian national team touring South Africa. 
The Aussies had been scheduled to play three Test matches against the Proteas in February and March 
“CSA wishes to record its immense disappointment at the news. The safety of players is always paramount and over the past few months CSA held many detailed discussions with CA regarding COVID-19 protocols. These discussions included assessing and managing the COVID-19 risks and consulting with a range of leading medical experts including the South African Ministerial COVID Advisory Committee. CSA worked hard to meet the changing demands of our Australian counterparts,” said a CSA statement. 
“CSA is particularly disappointed given that South Africa recently hosted Sri Lanka in a bio-secure environment (BSE) with no breaches of protocol.” 
The statement also stated that President Cyril Ramaphosa’s easing of lockdown restrictions in response to 75 percent reduction in new COVID-19 infections is further proof that the country is doing something right.
