SOME DOUBTS :

*Role of Technical Director?
*DH is interim or permanent coach?
*When the Bowling coach appointment happen?
*Is their any change in captaincy?

Anyone know please clarify these questions :!:
- limited. It's probably to avoid having to pay Rajput off in one chunk. He'll be based in India and probably do very little. When his contract expires he'll be gone.
- It sounds permanent
- Soon hopefully. Was discussed by the board today.
- No news. I think they'll stick with him for the time being.

I can sleep a bit better today. My last point is that I honestly don't think Ervine is a good captain but its not his fault they appointed him in the first place. We need a captain with a bit of fire in their belly. Maybe a new generation. I would even go as far as making Blessing captain. Williams is the perfect option but we all know that's an explosion waiting to happen.
Sikander Raza could be a viable option.

I have a few connections in the Matabelenad scene and one of them players told me that ZC only retained the useless dog because the BCCI requested it as a favour. Despite ZC apathy to him.
If you believe it, it’ll explain a helluva lot.

Glad the fraud is sidelined.

Great News :) Now, Zim will definately include quality players like Stevens Saul & Inamuel Bawa and win games.
ZC should also include Vusipuzi Sibanda as batting coach and Ncubee as bowling coach. Ncubee can teach them how to bowl fast and land yorkers

:lol:

Why would the BCCI be involved - he hasn’t been employed by them for many years?

Although I do like stories and rumours like this. Anything is possible in Zimbabwean cricket :lol:

If that true it's phenomenal. He will make our bowlers lethal.
Steyn is one of the man who polished Umran malik bowling 💥
