H Streak Sacked As Zimbabwe Captain
Saturday, April 3 2004
Heath Streak has been sacked as captain of Zimbabwe and replaced by Tatenda Taibu.
Streak is alleged to have put a number of demands to the Zimbabwe Cricket Union (ZCU) and insisted that if they were not met he would resign from all forms of cricket in Zimbabwe.
The ZCU dismissed his ultimatum and sacked him with immediate effect, replacing Streak with Tatenda Taibu as the new captain with immediate effect.
In a statement, the ZCU said: "Streak raised a number of issues and demanded that they be met by Monday or else he would resign from all forms of cricket.
Instead of accepting his demands the ZCU board unanimously accepted his resignation from all forms of cricket with immediate effect.
