South Africa's director of cricket Graeme Smith vented his frustration on Tuesday at Australia's decision to withdraw from next month's Test tour of the country due to the rampant spread of the coronavirus.

Former Test captain Smith said Cricket South Africa had "bent over backward" to meet Australia's demands, only for their opponents to scrap the tour citing an "unacceptable risk".
