Vermuelen Asks ZC to Reconsider Contract Decision

Mark Vermuelen has approached Zimbabwe Cricket to ask them to reconsider their decision not to offer him a national team contract.

"I still want to play. I was given no reason why I was not given a contract. I think I have done my best for Zimbabwe to make at least the performance-based list. I have the highest average in first-class cricket and have more than 4000 first-class runs. At the moment I'm training with the Academy and practising in the gym. We have club cricket starting next week, but I need an income, and if I do not get paid playing cricket, I would have to look at something else."

ZC General Manager Ozias Bvute has reportedly told Vermuelen that although it wouldn't be his decision, he would:

"take the necessary measures."
