Read Sean Bell’s tweet. He started on 3k and had two 30% cuts. That was a long time ago. Maybe ZC can get the players to pay them if they want to play cricket? Now there’s an idea.

How much of a pay cut though. 10% 30%?
I was told we were ALL getting our salaries HALVED. Mine will now be unlivable (it's two months in arrears anyway), especially as I am only to be employed part-time.

He’s about to leave, or has left, I believe going to live in Durban.

I’m sorry to hear that.
There’s trouble looming with players and staff, I can almost guarantee.

4 years,
But I believe there’s some clause at the 3 years mark. Someone here was talking about it the other day.

Looks like BD-ZIM series may well be cancelled due to a player strike.
