He cited case in points and said in 2015 his administration brought back Kyle Jarvis and Brendan Taylor from County Cricket and matched their salaries.

Under his stewardship, they also brought in Gary Ballance and Dave Houghton while they asked the quadrant of Hamilton Masakadza, Elton Chigumbura, Prosper Utseya and Chamu Chibhabha to retire to balance the race card. ” There is no race card in Zimbabwe Cricket.

When you post that there is racism or tribalism, that is misinformation we dislike,” he said.

Coltart’s frustration was premised on the 2025 performance that saw Zimbabwe suffering defeats to Afghanistan, England, South Africa and New Zealand, three of them innings losses.

However,Mukhulani explicitly explained and laid bare the fairness of the team selection process without mincing his words.

The Sports Recreation Commission (SRC) has since launched a probe into the root of the former British South Africa Police officer Coltart’s allegations which sports critics described as ‘a figment of his imagination’.

The SRC director general Elta Nengomasha said her body will work all out to get to the roots.
