This has been a sleepy week for business, so please accept our apologies
for a rather brief magazine this week. The main item is an interview with
Zimbabwe’s captain in Sri Lanka, Stuart Carlisle, who talks about that tour.
Carlisle is also likely to continue as Zimbabwe's captain in India, as
the official captain Brian Murphy's ill fortune continues. He was recently

his return from Sri Lanka is so serious that it will take another three or
four weeks before he can even start bowling again with it - and then he will
need to work to regain his bowling form.
