Good call by ZC, i support that, after what happened to the Sri Lankan team i don't think anyone would want to tour there now.

Re: Zimbabwe refuse to send U-19 team to Pakistan
This news has a lot of significance. Zimbabwe have taken a strong stand. That itself is something to be appreciated. Pakistan U-19 would be touring Zimbabwe before the end of the year. This would also give an opportunity to assess the Zim U-19 team. This might give an insight into the mindset of ZC towards involving Heath Streak into the fold, as there were rumors of him getting involved in coaching role with U-19 to begin with.
