Judge Zak Yacoob, chairman of the interim board of Cricket South Africa (CSA), said in a message sent to reporters that the body's members' council had made the decision to recognise the board after a weekend of uncertainty.
Addressing the media on Friday, chair Zak Yacoob said the nine-member team had “been mandated to do a clean-up job and we take it seriously”.
Responding to a letter by acting president, Rihan Richards, which outlined why the council had taken such steps, interim board chairperson Zak Yacoob acknowledged that the two parties were far apart in their understanding of their mandated roles.
The interim board has been brought together through a consultative process that involved the Department of Sport, the Members Council of CSA and the SA Cricketers Association.
This follows the resignation of the entire board and president of the cricket governing body on Monday.
The international season begins with a three-match T20 International series and three-match One-Day International (ODI) series against England in Cape Town and Paarl.
This follows the resignation of the entire CSA board over the weekend.
On his resignation Williams said that he is deeply passionate about cricket and because of his love for the game, he has resigned as this is the best way he can currently serve cricket.
CSA launched the domestic season on Thursday, with professional domestic cricket set to get underway early next month.
The tour will be limited to the Western Cape with two ODI matches and two T20 matches to played at Newlands Stadium, and one ODI and one T20 match at Eurolux Boland Park, Paarl.
Victor Mpitsang replaces Linda Zondi and will start his new job on 2 November 2020.
In a strongly-worded statement, Sports Minister Nathi Mthethwa set a deadline of October 27 for CSA to provide him in writing with reasons why he should not "exercise his right to intervene".
This followed a series of meetings between Mthethwa and crisis-hit CSA to try and resolve issues at the embattled organisation.
The body on Tuesday appeared before the Sports, Arts and Culture portfolio committee in Parliament, where they gave details of the forensic report which was used to fire former CEO, Thabang Moroe.
Former CSA CEO Thabang Moroe was fired in August based on the findings. He was found to have flouted proper processes in his filling of certain vacancies like the HR manager.
There have been calls for CSA to release the Fundudzi forensic report into what happened under the management of Thabang Moroe.
Sascoc has written to Sports Ninister Nathi Mthethwa claiming that it had met with "serious resistance" from CSA over an attempt to investigate the issues in cricket.
CSA will schedule this competition in the second half of the 2020/21 season.
