CSA REAFFIRMS STATEMENT RELEASED ON LIZELLE LEE’S RETIREMENT

CSA REAFFIRMS STATEMENT RELEASED ON LIZELLE LEE’S RETIREMENT

JOHANNESBURG: Cricket South Africa (CSA) has on 08 July 2022 issued a media release announcing the retirement of Lizelle Lee from all forms of international cricket. The release was issued, pursuant to Lee’s engagement with CSA, and also incorporated her statement in her own words.

CSA has however noted recent media reports, making reference to Lee’s retirement, which are devoid of truth, fact or sanction from either CSA nor Lee.

Consequently, CSA distances itself from such reports, reaffirms the integrity of the media release issued on 08 July 2022 and confirms that no other communication was issued regarding Lee’s retirement by both parties.

The comments made in the media regarding this are therefore unfortunate, regrettable, and discredited.
