According to news agencies, the whole Zimbabwean team is going to resign at the end of the current series. No international cricket will be played by or in Zimbabwe after the current test series is over. The Zimbabwe Cricket Union (ZCU) will also be dissolved. Zimbabwean cricket captain Tatenda Taibu and senior member Heath Streak were unable for comment when contacted by Reuters. President of Zimbabwe, Robert Mugabe described the decision to dissolve ZCU as "a sad day for Zimbabwe cricket". When asked about the reason for the action, President Mugabe said "It is a great loss for the country of Zimbabwe. Not only the cricket team, but the entire nation is demoralized. We could have easily continued playing cricket after losing to any country in the world, but the shock of watching India's captain Sourav Ganguly make a hundred against us was too much to bear. That is all I have to say."
.. a very sad day indeed.

The news doesn't seem totally incredible, as Presidents Mugabe's 'reason' is quite significant. :)

In an Indian newspaper, someone had written a letter to the editor whose contents are essentially : China is joining ICC. Saurav Ganguly must be overjoyed because he can score a couple of more centuries soon and we should probably have a tour to China that crushes them in the bud.
Very funny. What's up with all the unscruplous businessmen? Dalmia leaks Chapells' email - very professional.
