And sloandog, where did you get the pic of Stuey Carlisle and Craig Wishart enjoying on a holiday?

Haha very good Crimson, very good

Any clues on the inital question, CrimsonAvenger?

[CrimsonAvenger]

Well, he has not played any sort of serious cricket in Zimbabwe...

[foreignfield]

I guess it's not someone who has played county cricket, otherwise he would be more prominent.

Maybe Duncan Bradshaw who has played FC cricket for Oxford???

Ok, a stab in the dark considering the people in the news: is it Ethan Dube?

Nope.

Apologies for the quality of the picture but it was the best I could do.

Peter Chingoka

Peter Chingoka

Correct!

I must confess I never new Chingoka played any serious cricket before I stumbled across this picture. It shows him bowling for the South African African IX in 1975 when for a very short period a step was taken towards integration in SA cricket, albeit with teams still chosen along racial lines. Chingoka even captained the SAACB side in two Gilette Cup matches, and the only wicket he took was that of no other than the great Barry Richards for just 12. http://www.cricketarchive.com/Archive/S ... 35664.html

So Chingoka was the very first black Zimbabwean to play a List A match.
