Streak returns to the fold
Saturday, May 1 2004
Inspirational Zimbabwean all-rounder Heath Streak has returned to the fold for Zimbabwe 'A' in a three day match against Sri Lanka on May 1 in Harare before the first Test which begins on May 6 in Harare.
Joining Streak are left arm spinner Raymond Price, openning batsman Trevor Gripper and all-rounder Sean Ervine.
Streak who was controversially sacked as captain after a dispute with the Zimbabwe Cricket Union (ZCU), resulted in a boycott which involed 15 of Zimbabwe's leading and promising crickets on April 2. This move effectively ends the boycott.
However, Streak will have to play under Alester Maregwede - who has been appionted captain. Streak described his selection as "excited and elated" and is looking forward to getting onto the park once more.
Zimbabwe A team Trevor Gripper, Mark Vermeulen, Stuart Matsikenyeri, Alester Maregwede (capt), Vusi Sibanda, Elton Chigumbura, Sean Ervine, Heath Streak, Prosper Utseya, Blessing Mahwire, Ray Price.
