Mahwire left out of second Test

Blessing Mahwire has been left out of Zimbabwe's side for the second Test against Sri Lanka. Mahwire was reported to the ICC for having a suspect bowling action in the first Test, which Zimbabwe lost by an innings and 240 runs.

His place has been taken by Vusi Sibanda, who has played two Tests. That was the only change in the team for the second match, which starts at Bulayawo on May 14. Tatenda Taibu will again lead the side, depleted by the 15 rebel players, and another landslide Sri Lankan victory is expected.

Zimbabwe 1 Tatenda Taibu (capt), 2 Dion Ebrahim, 3 Stuart Matsikenyeri, 4 Brendan Taylor 5 Alester Maregwede, 6 Prosper Utseya, 7 Mluleki Nkala, 8 Douglas Hondo, 9 Tinashe Panyangara, 10 Elton Chigumbura, 11 Vusumuzi Sibanda.
