Shamsi Sues Cricket South Africa, Wins Legal Costs & Extended NOC

  • Tabraiz Shamsi successfully sued Cricket South Africa (CSA) in the Johannesburg High Court, winning legal costs.
  • Shamsi withdrew from his SA20 contract with MI Cape Town to play in overseas T20 leagues like ILT20 and BBL.
  • CSA issued a No-Objection Certificate (NOC) for ILT20 valid only until December 19, which was insufficient for the tournament.
  • After talks failed, Shamsi sought urgent relief from the High Court to extend his NOC.
  • The court ordered CSA to extend Shamsi's NOC until January 4 (ILT20 final) and pay his legal expenses, leading to a separate BBL NOC.

Why It Matters: Court ruled in favor of Tabraiz Shamsi against CSA for an extended NOC and legal costs.
