Zimbabwe's cricketers are set to have their salaries cut as their national board continues to face financial troubles.
Zimbabwe Cricket chairman Tavengwa Mukuhlani told The Associated Press this week during the second test against Sri Lanka that soon it will be necessary to cut back and reducing players' salaries are part of the process.
Mukuhlani didn't give exact figures of how much salaries would be reduced by as that decision would be made by the Zimbabwe Cricket board. But players had been informed there would be cuts.
"It's an on-going process, Mukuhlani said. But yes, we will have to cut back. It can't be business as usual.
"Obviously it's a bit of a touchy subject. But I will assume that everyone will accept it. We will rather make sacrifices today and survive tomorrow. It's bring and take, a bargaining process."
