Westerns franchise to be called the Matabeleland Tuskers
The Chronicle has revealed that the Westerns franchise, headed by CEO Stanley Staddon, will be named the Matabeleland Tuskers, no doubt a reference to the many elephants in the region.
It was believed that they wanted to be called the Matabeleland Warriors, so why they have decided on the Tuskers is still not known.
The Tuskers logo is expected to be an elephant with Victoria Falls in the background, with their main colour being blue.
Meanwhile, any thoughts that ZC may employ some sort of draft system can now be dismissed after it has emerged that the Matabeleland franchise have already awarded their players contracts.
