It's now concering me. Can we say things fall apart? I won't be shocked if we fail to have a good squad for Bangladesh next year.

To coach in a primary school?? Wow...

Well, the financial situation in Zim along with the quota system coming to existence in SA might bring about lot of coaching opportunities at the grassroots level cricket in SA (primary schools in SA might want to boast of black cricketers who made it to the very top), and this might just be a beginning then! :(

That's disappointing. I thought he looked a pretty handy bowler at Test level, so it's pretty sad to be letting talent like that slip away.

I am guessing he wont be branded as a traitor and opportunist like most white players are when they leave.

everyone wants out of Zim at the moment there is massive fear about the economy under the incumbent party

I don't think its about traitor thing. What I think is that people just react and blame someone when they don't have enough infomation. I think now even if a white player is to leave they now understand that its not the problem with the player but the administration. Remember most of the comments come from supporters who just want to see the team win, so they will say anything. Honestly speaking the economy does not look good, and im also thinking of leaving. So on the part of the players I really understand them.
