If the board has a relatively lax attitude to overseas players I wonder if it extends to national qualification? There must be a few SA FC players with Zimbabwean antecedents who would improve the international side. The ICC's regs only ask that a player is a citizen of the country, so in theory they wouldn't even have to play in Zim.

Steyn famously the son of Zimbabwean parents, although think that ship has sailed.
