Former captain Graeme Smith was on Wednesday appointed as Cricket South Africa's (CSA) interim director of cricket.
CSA's acting CEO Jacques Faul said that Smith will remain on the post until the Indian Premier League (IPL) next year.
"I am delighted that Graeme has agreed to assist Cricket South Africa up until the IPL next year," Faul said in a statement.
Smith was quoted as saying by CSA: "I've publicly stated a number of times that I would love to assist CSA in this difficult time, particularly in developing this new role of Director of Cricket.
"I'm still as passionate about South African cricket as I ever was and I''m looking forward to getting stuck into the role."
