Cricket. If Zimbabwe had the cricket playing opportunities of Bangladesh, then they would have been miles ahead in their cricket. Those lost years when the Intl Community sanctioned them because of Mugabe really set them back. I remember the days of Heath Streak, Taibu, the brothers Flower, et al. They had a really good set of players.
