Cricket In response to what it called "concern" about the nation's sending a subpar squad to New Zealand, South Africa said on Tuesday that it was unable to come to an agreement on alternate dates for the series. The organization released a statement saying, "We reassure the fans that CSA has the utmost respect for the Test format as the pinnacle of the game we love." Due to CSA giving priority to the SA20, a T20 franchise competition, only seven capped players—two of whom participated in the first Test against India last week—are included in a 14-man squad for the two Test matches in March.
