The entire board of Zimbabwe Cricket has been suspended with immediate effect by the Sports and Recreation Commission (SRC), a government parastatal and the governing organisation of all registered sporting associations in the country. ZC acting managing director Givemore Makoni has also been suspended from his position.
David Ellman-Brown, Ahmed Ibrahim, Charlie Robertson, Cyprian Mandenge, Robertson Chinyengetere, Sekesai Nhokwara and Duncan Frost have been announced as an interim committee to run cricket in the country.
The SRC’s move came a week after it issued a directive that ZC’s elective annual general meeting be suspended, alleging complaints about the nomination process and the violation of ZC’s constitution, as well as “various other controversies”. ZC ignored the directive, and Tavengwa Mukuhlani was re-elected for another four-year term following the meeting, leading the SRC to invoke its powers under the terms of the SRC Act.
