Cricket journalist Neil Manthorp has denied that a clash between Proteas captain Graeme Smith and former coach Mickey Arthur led to Arthur’s sudden resignation.

Manthorp says Arthur quit because of renewed pressure from Cricket South Africa over the lack of black African players in the national team.

The ex-coach is scheduled to explain his move, days before the team’s departure for India, at a news conference in East London this morning.
