Question NW10 to the Minister of Sport and Recreation
06 March 2019 - NW10
Singh, Mr N to ask the Minister of Sport and Recreation
Why does KwaZulu-Natal, despite the high number of cricket fans in the province, have a low number of international cricket fixtures in (i) test, (ii) limited overs and (iii) T20 scheduled for 2019 and (b) what steps will her department take to correct such an anomaly? NW12E
Reply:
1. The official Cricket South Africa (CSA) gate numbers from the International Cricket Committee (ICC) approved stadia, does not confirm this claim.
2. CSA therefore designed a nationally agreed Stadium Model Agreement to maximise efficiencies to ensure an equitable arrangement in the allocation for all international match allocations (i, ii iii) amongst its Members.
