CSA president Norman Arendse has expressed his displeasure at alleged moves to oust him with a vote of no-confidence.

Arendse was reacting to media reports that Gauteng Cricket President Mtutuzeli Nyoka is set to stand against him in a special meeting called by the provinces on September 26.

According to the reports, with CSA restructuring to an Article 21 (non-profit) organisation to comply with tax laws, a vote of no-confidence is being organised to oust the controversial Arendse.

Arendse told Beeld that what hurts him most is that his predecessor, Ray Mali, has turned his back on him. Mali has been "nominated" for the vice-president post.

"When he (Mali) became president of the ICC (International Cricket Council) and people told him he wouldn't make it because he didn't have the experience, I was the one who stood by him and defended him," Arendse told the newspaper.

"I can not tell you how shocked I was when I heard in Dubai last week that he is now in the camp of those who want to get rid of me."

Arendse says the move is unconstitutional because the restructuring has not been completed.

"The restructuring of Cricket South Africa was done purely for tax reasons. The tax law has not yet been passed and the Companies Act still exists. So on what basis do people now want to appoint directors if a new company is not yet in existence?" Arendse added.

"It would appear from the transcript that the status quo will be maintained with regard to the office-bearers, who will serve for two years from the time the Section 21 company is established.

"I was elected president at a meeting last year and that should be valid for three years. Now there are suddenly people who are going back on that which was agreed on."
