HARARE – Blessing Mafuwa, coach of the Rainbow Cricket Club, has been suspended for allegedly racially abusing Zimbabwe T20 captain Sikandar Raza during a Vigne Cup tie in Harare on June 1.
Raza was playing for Old Hararians and was walking off the pitch when Mafuwa allegedly made reference to his Pakistani heritage in a disparaging tone.
Raza registered a complaint with the Harare Metropolitan Cricket Association (HMCA) who suspended Mafuwa and summoned him to a hearing on Tuesday, according to chairman Tafadzwa Madoro.
