The Cricket South Africa Awards function was held a few nights ago at the Sandton Convention Centre in Johannesburg. International cricket match referee Devdas Govindjee was present at the glitterati event and shared these pictures with all the blog readers.
The CSA Awards 2013 evening was a glittering function last night- moments to savour successes & meet so many in our cricketing family
The decor was stunning and the audio-visual presentations top class. Low lighting in the conference centre added ambiance to a special evening.
Popular T.V. personalities Carol Tshabalala & Robert Marawa were outstanding as program directors.
A lump in the throat moment for me when my great friend Hoosain Ayob received the CSA Khaya Majola Lifetime Award from Cynthia Majola and her son. Hoosain served cricket with distinction and is a special individual.
Congratulating Hoosain Ayob later in the evening was a special moment for me- we go back many years as players and have a mutual respect for each other- with us is Shafiek Abrahams now selector and commentator.
CSA umpires enjoying the evening . Murray Brown, Earl Hendrikse, Brad White and Marais Erasmus.
