The National Convenor of Selectors has been replaced as of October 21st. It’s been announced by Cricket South Africa that Victor Mpitsang is the latest National Convenor Selector, with his full-time employment commencing on November 2nd of this year. Choosing Victor Mpitsang for NCS will reward Cricket South Africa with an experienced individual. Domestic & international structures of professional cricket have been overseen by Victor Mpitsang, similar to his predecessor of Linda Zondi. He was blindsided & terminated from the position of National Convenor Selector.
Victor Mpitsang is aged forty & has sustained a prolonged career in professional cricket. This career began when scouting for the “Cricket Schools Programme’, locating next generation cricketers aged lower than nineteen. Victor held this position until being offered employment by the Proteas Women’s Team, taking the role of Bowling Consultant.
It’d be years before Victor Mpitsang terminated his employment with the Proteas Women’s Team. Afterwards, he’d take a Selectors position with the “South African Universities Cricket Programme”. While maintaining that role, Victor Mpitsang also became an Assistant Coach for the South African Under-19s Team. That placement was held until being offered a Selectors placement with the Proteas Male Team, where he’d uncover future international superstars. It’s this job that enabled Victor Mpitsang to reach serious consideration for “The National Convenor of Selectors”.

Graeme Smith expressed that Victor is the correct choice, with the position of National Convenor Selector being vital for the CSA. Director Smith clarified that the importance of this role is why the decision-making process took longer than expected. However, it’s allowed all executives at Cricket South Africa to feel safe & secure in their decision.
