Cricket South Africa, a privately owned entity headquartered in South Africa, was founded in 1991, with an estimated 200 employees. It operates as a tier 1 media tech buyer. The organization functions as the governing body for both professional and amateur cricket in South Africa.
On July 8, 2026, gsport co-founder and international cricket commentator Kass Naidoo underscored the critical need for scaled-up sponsorship to develop South African women’s sport, a discussion prompted by the Proteas Women’s recent semi-final exit at the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup. Previously, on June 22, Cricket South Africa (CSA) collaborated with FoneYam, a Pepkor product, and the Dentsu School of Influence to address "access problems" hindering South Africa's creator economy. Earlier, on May 20, CSA faced public criticism after allocating the majority of tickets for the Newlands England Test, scheduled for January 3-7, to travel packages, hospitality, and other reserved categories, resulting in fewer than 1,600 public tickets per day selling out rapidly. This followed the May 12 announcement of the Proteas Women T20 World Cup squad, which included the sensational comeback of pace bowler Shabnim Ismail, who reversed her retirement to participate in the event taking place in England and Wales from June 12 to July 5.
