Goodwin to play in SA
JOHANNESBURG, Sept 19: Former Zimbabwe batsman Murray Goodwin is to play in South Africa for the Eastern Cape Warriors. Goodwin played 19 Tests for Zimbabwe between 1998 and 2000, scoring 1,414 runs.
“Murray is a great signing for the Warriors and it reinforces our strong desire and stated intent to put cricket in the area back on the map,” Cricket Eastern Cape CEO Dave Emslie said.
“Murray has extensive international experience and has identified very strongly with the role we have spelt out to him.
“Goodwin's role will be first and foremost to score as many runs as possible and to be an example to our young players we are busy developing,” Emslie said.
