Cricket South Africa has withdrawn disciplinary charges against head coach Mark Boucher less than a week before his hearing was set to start.
Boucher was formally charged with gross misconduct back in January, following the Social Justice and Nation-Building (SJN) report. The 45-year-old was facing three disciplinary charges relating to his time as both a player and a coach.
He had been accused by former South Africa spinner Paul Adams of referring to him as "brown s***" and singing a song which also included the slur. In response, Boucher said he "deeply regrets and apologises for the part I played in joining in with my team-mates in singing offensive songs or using offensive nicknames."
