Zimbabwe Cricket appoints left-arm fast bowler Richard Ngarava as captain for the senior men’s Test team for a one-off match against Bangladesh. The fixture is scheduled to be played at Harare Sports Club, with the match set to begin on Sunday. The appointment gives Ngarava his first captaincy role in Test cricket.
The match also marks Zimbabwe’s return to Test cricket after their previous outing at the same venue in October, when Zimbabwe recorded a comprehensive innings-and-73-run win over Afghanistan. Both outlets report that Zimbabwe name their squad for the Bangladesh clash ahead of the game, with Ngarava leading the side.
Across the reports, the focus remains on the captaincy decision and the timing and venue of the Bangladesh Test, as well as the reference point of Zimbabwe’s most recent Test performance in October against Afghanistan at Harare Sports Club.
