- Опубликовано: 6 фев 2025
- The Zimbabwe Cricket Crisis is one of the saddest sagas in cricket's history. What was initially portrayed as a initiative to transform Zimbabwe Cricket for the better, would ultimately lead to controversy, pain and long term harm for the sport nationally. In this video, learn about it's background, what actually happened, and the ultimate fallout afterwards. The ramifications of which, are still being felt to this day.

I remember as a kid enjoying watching players like Flower brothers, Olonga, Heath, and Campbell. It's sad what happened to Zimbabwe cricket.
Murray Goodwin / David Houghton
Andy blignaut / heath streak / Alistair Campbell
Life is Funny , just hours after this video was posted Zimbabwe beats India in T20 international in their first game after becoming world champions
Hey mate - just wanted to say I stumbled across your channel a couple of days ago and have been watching everything since.
You're a talented writer and compelling speaker, great story telling!
Those were glory days from 1997 till 2001, when Zimbabwe played their best cricket ever.
Those wonderful Flower Brothers, Alastair Campbell, Neil Johnson, The Whittalls, Rennies, Stuart Carlisle, Craig Wishart, Blignaut, Marillier, Brandes, Olonga will forever live in our hearts.
Thanks for the Wonderful memories, Champions!
Bro they’ll be fine the current team is good too!
@@learningvideosbynikhil8308 True, but the quota system is here to stay. Same with South Africa as well.
Heath Streak?
@dannydannydannydanny forgot to mention his name, Murray Goodwin and the Strang Brothers as well.
@@Cricketing_Nostalgia Mpumelelo Pommie Mbangwa? 30 odd Average with ball in 15 Tests he got to play before Mugabe's demlition.
You must be listening in on my conversations. I was literally having this exact conversation with a friend three days ago 😂
God is crazy huh
Listening to this makes me emotional man. It's really sad what our cricket has become.
Rip Heath Streak!
Another great video mate. I have been intrigued by Zimbabwe since the 1992 World Cup which was the first one I saw on TV and the first time I realised Zimbabwe played cricket. Always cheered for them against anyone other than Australia.
Another cracking vid mate, keep it up
Good video mate. Quota systems will always be rough.
Quota system is not wrong. It's the way of implementation
@rinkiakepapa5625
Quota systems will always be wrong.
Teams need to be selected on performance and ability. Not skin colour.
They could have easily have put their resources into getting young black kids to play the game and the "proper representation" would have happened organically in time.
Instead they dropped white players because of their skin colour and destroyed the team.
@@StuTheDon17exactly mate
I actually disagree with most people, I think a quota system is wrong, you pick your best side, picking a player over another because of anything other than cricket is unfair. They should have focused on getting more participation amongst black people at a grassroots level, rather than messing with team selection
Very well explained. It's so sad to see the downfall of many cricket countries
I loved how you articulated everything on this. as an Aussie supporter, it hurts to see the team crumble they way it did.
Who's here after Zimbabwe beating India 😂
Didn't last long did it?
Me😂😂😂😂
lost by 100 runs in the second one
@@sabertrat& lost by 10 wickets too
I'm here for the 10 wicket victory and a roll up for the series 🤫
Mate your videos are always top tier.
Thanks for tackling controversial issues like this, especially given it's a cricket channel. Very well handled. Probably gonna watch all your videos this summer.
All the editing, stock footage, down to the cadence of your voice is great. Just good content. Thank you
Please make a video on how, after 2007 ODI WC failure, the BCCI + coaches + Selectors + Captain + team strategies changed the fortunes, and we ended up getting such a dynamic and young team ready to win the 2011 World cup.
Seven players from the Squad for 2007 WC were replaced for the 2011 WC
1. Rahul Dravid = Virat Kohli
2. Sourav Ganguly = Gautam Gambhir
3. Dinesh Karthik = Yusuf Pathan
4. Robin Uthappa = Suresh Raina
5. Irfan Pathan = Ashish Nehra
6. Ajit Agarkar = Piyush Chawla
7. Anil Kumble = Ravichandran Ashwin
The players who were retained from the 2007 WC squad for the 2011 WC Squad were
1. Sachin Tendulkar
2. MS Dhoni
3. Virender Sehwag
4. Yuvraj Singh
5. Harbhajan Singh
6. Munaf Patel
7. Sreesanth
8. Zaheer Khan
In the lead up to the 2011 wc, in a 3 way competition between Raina, Kohli and Rohit for the middle order batter slot, Rohit had missed out. Similarly, how did Indian cricket end up discovering those 7 new faces, assign them specific roles in the ODI setup, give them a long enough run to test them, and finally select only those new faces who have done well in the interim period.
The journey and revolution of England from 2015 to 2019 is very much well documented. I feel India also did something similar, it was a huge innovation and revolution for the Indian ODI team between a disastrous WC and a successful WC.
Please make a video on the journey of the Indian team between those two world cups
Superb video. You are so talented. I love how you cover all bases. Mugabe’s negative impact on the country in general and how it impacted cricket. Well well done.
It's clear that you put a lot of time, effort, and research into your videos. They are informative and entertaining. Keep it up mate.
This feels like the commentary of a man who is concerned with cricket and cricket alone.
Unless one was a cronie of Mugabe, one struggles to see how it was any better for anyone else outside of cricket either.
As someone who is pretty new to cricket, this explains a lot. I was wondering why a full ICC member was so bad. I had no idea about the politics behind it. Thanks so much for this video, mate.
Nice work 6ixandout. I really admire your storytelling and attention to detail.
Great content. You're the only RUclips channel that i've subscribed with bell icon. I hope you get many more audience and followers. Would love to see if you start podcasts too on cricket history.
hey man, absolutely love your analysis and explanation of so many external factors around the game, your videos make me love cricket even more, I think for your next video you should do an analysis of Bangladesh crickets downfall, this team was on the rise from 2015-2019 but have nowhere near reached that kind of success since then. P.S: the effort you put into these videos is clearly reflective in the quality of them, I think you deserve a lot more views and subs
Excellent video!
Those Harare ground and Bulawayo grounds were beautiful and the team between 90-05 got big heart 💕
Love your videos mate. Can you make one about the infamous Australia vs World XI super series of 2005 please ??
Why did you call it infamous?
@@harismansoor5733 It was infamous back then for variety of reasons like World XI players weren't interested. Plus it's almost forgotten now.
@@rohandante You must be Indian. They usually give such excuses when their team loses badly.
The 'Rest of the World XI' were interested, but just weren't good enough to trouble the Aussies.
Love your vids, super informative, detailed, and your storytelling skills are really good. Keep it up!!!
17:00 this was when Matthew Hayden scored 380 in Test Match
Another great vid mate keep it up🎉
If Zimbabwean were situated closer to the USA / exportable mining etc - the CIA would have “disappeared” the Mugabe regime
He committed crimes against humanity . Very sad for white farmers
Pick on talent - not colour
Zimbabwe have produced some excellent players over the years . Have beaten Australia (when Andrew Simonds went fishing / hung over )
Zimbabwe cricket are slowly going in the right direction now
Great video👏
Thank you for your video my country Zim is beautiful but the crisis in cricket always makes me angry

It's 2 am here in my zone
Still gotta watch your video coz you hardly disappoint❤
great video mate, cricket would be better if teams like Zimbabwe were more competitive
Terrific video.
Thank you sir for the vdo ❤
I know it's tough. I know it could take a lot of of you.. But could you do a story on South Africa cricket who had a similar story a few years back?
If Williams, Ervine, Raza retire in the next 2 yeara, Zimbabwe will be on Kenya level. We cant beat Uganda and Namibia now.
good video. it's hard to tackle a topic like the racism here in zimbabwe and some other countries that used to be colonies.. because white families did and some still do benefit from colonisation, but some use it as an excuse
He failed to mention the white farmers that were slaughtered to death though.
How did that benefit them?
Great content 👌
Ray Price was a top class left arm spinner who was part of the player rebellion.
Zim Cricket crisis....beats India.
Babe what's wrong, you've barely touched your new 6ixandout vid.
Flower Brothers, Olonga, Heath Streak, Campbell, Hamilton Masakadza, Bendon Taylor are few legends I remember and Pommie mbangwa more with his commentary stint now.
Here after Zimbabwe defeated India
RIP Heath Streak. Teams should be selected as usual, with the best players being picked. Not to fill quotas.
Man, this episode is released at the wrong time!
I don’t get it how hard is it to pick player based on performance instead of color , and if you want colored then develop them and you also don’t wanna do that . Like tf you want . This goes for you as well South Africa
Bro they’re fine they just have one bad game here and there!
SA cricket is headed in the same direction.
I don't think so.
lol no
100% right. Anyone who disagrees with you doesn't know what they're talking about.
@@StuTheDon17 They got into the final. How come you can say that. Can you elaborate.
They didn't even use the quota system this WC.
Bro @6ixandout can u make your next video on India's T20 WC Glory in 2024?
Dear australia cummings should have captained they would have won really won wtc 50 overs failed in t20
Please never mention Murali without a big ASTERIX. *. For chucking
His stats are not to be adhered too
His arm is bent and straightens upon release IE - A throw !!!!
bruh they just defeated us, oh my god if only Gill got support from the other end
When politics takes precedence over justice
Bro please cover netherland cricket i am from Amsterdam Netherlands🇳🇱❤
You are dutch
@@akshatsingh1646 of course why are so shocked
26:10
Watching on the day Jay Shah becomes ICC Chief😅
What an irony !!
And they won earlier today
Cricket South Africa are also implementing the Quota system and its not being implemented right. Some of the Blacks being selected are not good enough except Radaba
They beat world champions today🎉
The sanctions were wrong. They didn't affect Mugabe or any zanu pf people. They affected the economy and the regular people. Europeans and Americans have no right to sanction African countries
They just beat T20 world champion India in T20
If reservations galore, then downfall is certain. Zimbabwe, South Africa and their Kolpak deal and ofc... India in every manner 😅
Zimbabwe's Anti White Policy destroyed their cricket 😢
A very shallow video riddled with inaccuracies and assumptions. The same old story where everyone talks about pre 2004 Zim as if they were World champions. I won't bother to detail all the wrong parts, but i'll just pick out a few here
1. Zimbabwe have never beaten Australia or SA in a test match.
2. The history of discontent goes back to when Zim got its test status. So many black players were denied even the chance to play FC cricket
3. 8 December 2001: A zim team that had Carlisle, Flower brothers and Streak was bowled out for 38 in an ODI vs the same SL team. When the new team was bowled out for 35, they broke the old team's record. This is the same tour that they lost all 3 test matches, 2 by an innings. CONTEXT. However, like all others, you love to push this narrative that the standards fell so bad when the rebels left. If scoring 3 runs more against that mighty SL is what you call higher standards then i give up
He makes a disclaimer that they were only a solid team. Shut up and pay attention
When you want to change the cricket team to reflect the demographics of the country, you start at the grassroots not at the top
.......
Seems like India is going to lose the match..
Zimbabwe are a great example of what happens when a team is picked on skin colour and is rife with politics.
Sport is simple. The best players play. That's it.
As soon as you pick teams on anything other than merit you will always be weaker and lose.
South Africa is the next Zimbabwe
Thank god bcci is private body otherwise reservation 😢could destroy cricket
