Former players like Paul Adams accused Mark Boucher, who is currently South Africa’s coach, of racism.

Current South Africa coach Mark Boucher has apologized for singing inflammatory songs during his days as well as using nicknames for colorful teammates. As reported on ESPNcricinfo, Boucher has filed a 14-page affidavit to the Social Justice and Nation Building Committee of Cricket South Africa (SJN). He also claimed he was available for one-on-one talks with any former teammates he insulted.
