Acting Cricket SA (CSA) president AK Khan quit Wednesday in the aftermath of a $600,000 bonus scandal that has left chief executive Gerald Majola fighting for survival. Khan resigned at a CSA management committee meeting here along with audit and risk committee chairman John Blair three days before a board meeting which could decide the fate of Majola, who protested his innocence this week. “I think it is time for change and for new leadership … I am going back to grass roots cricket,” said Khan, who consistently backed the chief executive through the two-year crisis. A government-initiated inquiry headed by retired judge Chris Nicholson last week recommended prosecutors open a case against Majola over a scandal linked to the hosting of the 2009 IPL. Majola and former chief financial officer Don McIntosh were the alleged main benefactors of secret bonuses paid to them and other CSA officials after South Africa staged the IPL and the ICC Champions Trophy the same year.
