To be honest, I am very disappointed: Mark Boucher Mark Boucher was quoted by SportsBoom.com: ‘I’m extremely disappointed to be honest, and it’s nothing to do with the players. You can’t blame the players who have been selected or the players who are not playing. I think CSA needs to look at the scheduling. I don’t think it should be. If I was in New Zealand cricket, I would be quite disappointed. Read here: Aakash Chopra said on Rohit Sharma’s flop comeback in T20I cricket – ‘Anything more than necessary is harmful’ I understand that New Zealand do not want to withdraw from this Test series because World Test Championship points are at stake, but I think we need to take a hard look at ourselves, the scheduling, sitting in South Africa . CSA has to find a way, which is right and this is what should happen. The SA20 is good for the public to see. ‘SA20 is being supported very well’ SA20 are being supported very well, but we can’t do the same with a Test series away from home against a very strong New Zealand team. I know I’m not alone, there are probably a lot of people talking about this, and are disappointed.
