All training sessions will be held under strict guidelines announced by CSA's Steering Committee.
"Our prevention programme, besides the regular testing of players and support staff, is predicated on personal hygiene measures and creating a sanitised ecosystem," Shuaib Manjra, CSA's chief medical officer said.
"COVID-19 compliance managers at each venue have assumed responsibility to ensure all the elements of the protocol are implemented."

Season
Cricket has been suspended in South Africa since March
-
The South African cricketers have been out of action since the completion of domestic One-Day Cup group stage.
The playoffs and final did not proceed further.
In March, South Africa toured India to play a three-match ODI series, however, the series was called-off due to coronavirus pandemic.
Their white-ball tour of Sri Lanka, which was due this month, was also postponed.

The road ahead!

South Africa were hopeful of hosting India for three T20Is in August, but the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) gave no assurance.
The bilateral series is expected to be rescheduled to a later date.
Earlier this month, CSA postponed the newly introduced 3TC format due to lack of preparation.
Meanwhile, the cricket board will discuss elements of the FTP this week.
