@SRazaB24 has been added to the @ZimCricketv squads travelling to @BCBtigers next month for three ODIs and two Tests. He will, however, not play any part in the preceding series away to @OfficialCSA. Raza has explained himself, apologised and pledged his commitment to Zimbabwe.

this was a sensible thing to do in the end.

Good news. The idiots picked on someone who was just too big to be left out.

Got a feeling Cremer will be sneaked in for the tests too. Hopefully he would have recovered

He's ZIM's MVP for ODIs too given his all round capabilities. Taylor and Raza and Cremer are ZIM's heart and soul across formats.

Really hope Cremer makes it back for the Tests which start on Nov 2. Any idea on what Cremer's post-op status is?

I feel this is a good compromise from the board, despite the fact I think they should have given him the NOC for the Canadian t20 he needed to be punished for going against it.

Missing the RSA tour is not great but his bowling and batting in BD is more important so I'm fairly happy with the outcome.

As always I'm happy to give credit where it's due, ZC handle this situation fairly well in the end.

Whilst this is good news, I don't like the tweet.

"He apologised"...seems to me like they are enforcing themselves on their players and trying to make a point that no matter who you are and what we have done, ZC are always right.

No need to be dragging your best player under the mud like that.

Yes, we need him across formats. But the potential for enormous defeats in tests makes him more crucial there imho. No idea about Cremer. I would think he would struggle to get up for any of it.
