Zimbabwe have named former international Heath Streak as the country's new national team head coach.
Zimbabwe Cricket announced the appointment yesterday, ending the caretaker role of former SA international Makhaya Ntini, who is expected to stay on as bowling coach. Another former Proteas Test cricketer, Lance Klusener, is the team's batting coach.
Streak, 42, played 65 Tests and 189 one-day internationals between 1993 and 2005, with the former fast bowler the first Zimbabwean to capture 100 Test wickets. Streak has a little under three weeks to prepare his side for the first of two home Tests against Sri Lanka, starting on October 29. -Reuters
