Cryptic message by BT

Post by lobsang »

Brendan Taylor left a cryptic message on Instagram " Great to get out on the field after 18 months, who knows, maybe one day again " what do you guys make of this?

I wouldn't take a throw away, tongue-in-cheek instagram comment seriously if I were you :lol:

Also I would suggest to Brendan that he treads very carefully as his ban is all encompassing and includes coaching, in all cricket that could even slightly be considered under 'Zimbabwe Cricket's jurisdiction'.

Is this an ICC ban or ZC ?

Looked like a picture with his son?

Maybe he’s coaching junior cricket ?

Surely he’s not banned from that too?

Well it depends. The ban extends to ‘all cricket’ (including coaching, umpiring, scoring) at all levels and age groups ‘under the jurisdiction of the ICC member associations’.
But the lines are really blurred about how far that jurisdiction goes.

Remember Streak was forced to end all involvement in his academy due to his ban, and that academy was entirely private and not funded or overseen by ZC in any way.

The lines are blurred but generally these bans are all-encompassing so he really needs to be careful. Clearly there are a lot of bitter people in the country/ZC after what he did, and will probably jump on anything they can to punish him further.

I reckon he could make a bit of cash coaching Indian or South African kids or something privately
