ICC aims to end Zimbabwe cricket impasseDubai, Aug 2 (IANS) The International Cricket Council (ICC) is trying to work out a time table to bring Zimbabwe back to the Test match fold after its top officials visited the country and met the stakeholders of the board. At the end of their four-day visit to Zimbabwe, ICC president Percy Sonn and chief executive officer Malcolm Speed said Wednesday that they would give their feedback to the ICC's executive board meeting in November. 'We met with Zimbabwe cricket's interim committee, the Minister for Education, Sport and Culture Chigwedere, the national team's captain and coach and other stakeholders,' said Sonn. 'We were grateful for the opportunity to listen to and speak with everyone we met and, thanks to those meetings, we have a better understanding of the issues facing cricket in Zimbabwe,' he added. read more. He has promises to keep,And Miles To Go Before He Can SleepMahmoud Mohieldin is one of those people you either love or hate there's no gray zone, no safe middle ground. As the brashest and most outspoken of the Nazif Cabinet's Economic Team, where he joins Minister of Trade and Industry Rachid Mohamed Rachid and veteran Minister of Finance and Insurance Youssef Boutros-Ghali, Mohieldin has been working overtime since July 2004 to kick-start the nation's ailing economy. Two years into the job, he is routinely lauded in international circles for both his vision and the bluntness with which he implements it. It's gotten to the point where he seems almost invariably described in the foreign press as "Egypt's tough-minded investment minister." Those same attributes have won him little other than attacks here at home, particularly in the local press, and he knows it: Mohieldin has no illusions about his popularity with the majority of Egyptians who are staunchly opposed to his fast-track privatization program, but he says he's determined to remain focused on "ensuring the Egyptian people their right to a better future." Two years on, the statistics are promising and the programs are working, but the Economic Team still lacks credibility on the street. read more.
