I know he does a lot of work for charity as he came from a very very poor background and has donated money to aids charitys in the past so i will go for a guess for world aids day?

Its great to see sportsman give back to the community

Got to give it to you. It was during the 2007 CWC at Jamica, where he took part in UNICEF and UNAIDS supported initiative. He has been a regular in charity drives as you say, and it is indeed very heartening. Here is more about this particular instance: http://www.unicef.org/sports/index_39120.html

KINGSTON, Jamaica, 19 March 2007 – Following an impressive knock of 67 runs against Ireland in a match that ended in a thrilling tie at Jamaica’s Sabina Park, Vusimuzi Sibanda, Zimbabwe’s opening batsman, took time off on Friday to do the other thing he enjoys – helping children.

Young people at the UNICEF-supported Portmore’s Youth Information Centre (YIC) in Jamaica’s St. Catherine Parish welcomed the visit by the 23-year-old cricketer by inviting him to join them in a candid empowerment session on HIV and AIDS.

Mr. Sibanda’s visit was one many others being made by star cricketers throughout the Caribbean. They are an important component of the alliance between the International Cricket Council, UNICEF, UNAIDS and the Caribbean Broadcast Media Partnership on HIV/AIDS to support the Unite for Children. Unite Against AIDS global campaign and raise awareness about HIV.

OK, let us close this question. It was a tough one. The man in picture is Neeten Chouhan, who many believed, had a bright chance for national selection around the rebel walkout period.

Yes, according to Cricinfo, the last FC match he played was for Northerns (RSA) against Namibia in 2007, when Taibu was representing Namibia: http://www.cricinfo.com/zimbabwe/engine ... 57171.html
