BBC sports news today, a conversation with Coach Gibson regarding Shan Masood being appointed captain for next season includes

"If Gary Ballance comes back early next year, he brings leadership with his volume of runs"

I'm not sure if that's just the usual mixed up BBC crap from barely competent reporters or a suggestion that Ballance is yet to make a decision on his future career

Gibson was quoted a few weeks ago that he doesn't even know where the Zim rumours are coming from and that he considers Ballance an important player for them. Will be interesting to see what happens

Yorkshire were struggling badly too last time I checked. It's going to be an interesting decision

On Wisden twitter it claims Ballance has officially left Yorkshire. I figured he was just lying low for the remainder of the season to let the dust settle. Either he's negotiated a deal with another County or ....

The article says he's agreed not to play red ball for another County in 2023. That surely means he's coming here?

Oh but didn’t you know ‘there’s no way he’s coming here’ because ‘he has a contract’ and ‘why would he?’ According to multiple ZCF’ers.

Just like Houghton.
