Smith will clear 'dark mist' over SA cricket - Peterson

Former South Africa cricketer Robin Peterson believes former captain Graeme Smith can help solve the team's problems on and off the field,

Smith has been appointed as acting director of cricket following a number of issues- including the suspension of chief executive Thabang Moroe after allegations of misconduct, the loss of sponsors, a dismal effort at the Cricket World Cup and five straight Test defeats.

But Peterson is confident that Smith will help the players remember what it means to play for South Africa and reignite the uncompromising cricket the Proteas are renowned for.
