One of the best cricketers to ever represent Zimbabwe, Heath Streak, a former captain and bowling coach of the Bangladesh national cricket team is terminally ill and on his deathbed.
The sporting and cricket communities in Zimbabwe have urged people to pray for his well-being.
David Coltart, a former Zimbabwean Minister of Education, Sport, Arts & Culture, and a human rights lawyer, wrote: "This is a call to prayer warriors in Zimbabwe and beyond. Heath Streak, one of the greatest cricketers our nation has ever produced, is extremely ill and needs our prayers. Please could we all be in prayer for him and his family (sic)."
Streak (49), who played 65 Tests and 189 ODIs, was appointed by Bangladesh Cricket Board in May 2014 for two years contract. Under Streak, Bangladesh won a Test series and two ODI series against Zimbabwe, they qualified for the knockout stage of the 2015 World Cup, and won maiden ODI series against Pakistan, India and South Africa.
