More Musings on Overseas Play

The Independent has picked up on the theme of Sunday's article in The Standard suggesting overseas play may be the key to getting Zimbabwe's cricketers the experience they so badly need. Their suggestion is a return to playing in South Africa's provincial tournaments, including the Currie Cup, as was done prior to independence:

"While these frequent tours to South Africa at junior level have noticeably benefited Zimbabwe, the country now needs to be readmitted at a more senior level like in the past, in order to harvest immediate success with the national teams. Therein, playing constantly in South Africa or with South African sides gives players incentive to continue staying in Zimbabwe, added the commercial aspect and wider media exposure that comes with it."
