I wish some “indigenous” players would get behind this. Always the same old people lending a hand. Don’t bite the hand that slaps you :lol:
It was one of my first thoughts, but if I said it would be branded racist. I saw it on twitter, then got annoyed because the ZC account was getting and taking all the credit.

All-rounder Raza indicated he would buy 50 tickets per game in the series, which would be given out for free to fans as his contribution to the cyclone relief efforts and his Brendon Taylor, PJ Moor, and Kyle Jarvis pledged to match the donation.

Several Zimbabwe players have since said they will buy tickets to give to supporters to support the scheme. But before the series takes off, the UAE will first face Zimbabwe A in a 50-over warm-up match at Old Hararians on Monday.

It's the Herald. Several could just be the four that have already said they are doing it.

To be fair the majority of Indigenous players don't have Twitter so who knows they might be donating tickets or funds we don't know about?

Well, there is no reason to believe in that negativity. At least grammatically (highlighted) the article clearly indicates more people getting involved.

Secondly, a lot of people are known to do charity without talking about it.
