Zimbabwe Cricket (ZC) has released a statement condemning the alleged racist abuse of Zimbabwe batsman Malcolm Waller by a section of the home crowd during the second Test against Sri Lanka last week.Waller is understood to have lodged the complaint when abusive comments were directed at him after he dropped a catch on the morning of the fourth day of the Test. Fielding at square leg, Waller missed an easy chance off Asela Gunaratnes bat in the middle of an otherwise tight spell from quicks Carl Mumba and Chris Mpofu. Zimbabwe went on to lose the Test by 257 runs, conceding the series 2-0.Zimbabwe Cricket was deeply disturbed by the conduct of a section of fans who made abusive and racist chants targeted at our players during Zimbabwes just-ended Test series against Sri Lanka at Harare Sports Club, ZCs statement said. We condemn any act of racism, abuse or intolerance in cricket, in particular, and sport, in general.The chants appear to have come from the section of the ground known as Castle Corner, where fans traditionally gather in boisterous but good-natured support during international games. This is also the area where members of the Zimbabwe Cricket Supporters Union (ZCSU), an unofficial body that mobilises support for the national team during home games, can usually be found.We are also disappointed by such racist rants, if they were really made, Tapfumaneyi Vivian Banhire, chairman of the ZCSU, told cricketbadger.com. Our supporters union has no such members who engaged in such behaviour.Banhire confirmed his organisations position to ESPNcricinfo. It wasnt any of our guys, he said. Zimbabwean supporters are not racial at all.During Zimbabwes last home series against India in June when the home side was thrashed in all of their matches, disgruntled Zimbabwe fans vented their frustrations by holding up a variety of homemade signs, some of which suggested that Zimbabwe cricket players should be arrested and face treason over their performances.The fans made themselves clear during the India series and I believe the players had got the message, therefore there was no need to continue with waving such cards again, Banhire said. The fans are very happy that we have come this far.ZC is continuing to investigate Wallers complaint, and warned that it is taking steps to introduce sanctions against those involved in such incidents. The ICCs anti-racism code requires members to impose punishments, including possible life bans, on anyone found guilty of racial abuse.

The Court of Arbitration for Sport ruling "puts an end to my dreams of being a top player," the 27-year-old Troicki said in a statement. "I worked my entire life for it, and it has been taken away from me in one afternoon by a doctor I didnt know," said Troicki, whose ranking peaked at No. Forget leaving the porch light on, light up the entire village.Shane Flanagan has urged his team to embrace the hype after they took an almighty step towards breaking the clubs premiership drought with a stirring qualifying final comeback win over Canberra on Saturday.Already down on form and without injured skipper Paul Gallen, Flanagans men also overcame the early loss of vice-captain Wade Graham and a 12-0 deficit to register one of the famous wins in the clubs history.More importantly, the victory lifted them to within 80 minutes of this years NRL grand final, with the winner of next weeks North Queensland-Brisbane semi final the only hurdle left in their way.Its a stunning turnaround for a side that limped into the finals with one win in their past six games.But as they await their next opponent, Flanagan told his team to inhale the rarified air that is set to consume the Shire over the next fortnight as expectations build on a maiden NRL premiership.I was always told not to worry about things you cant control and I cant control that (hype), Flanagan said after the win.I think we need to enjoy it. Being a grand final qualifier, it doesnt come around too often.The playeers need to get a feel for it but in the end, Ive got a pretty smart footy team in there thats been around.dddddddddddd They wont get caught up in the hype of being in the game and theyll concentrate on the game.The Sharks have reached the grand final qualifier on six occasions over their 49-year history.Only three times have they gone on to feature in the big one, including the 1997 Super League competition.But not once have they hoisted the trophy at the end.Flanagan backed the experience of his senior men - six of whom have appeared in grand finals before - to ensure the rest of the team isnt overawed by the occasion.Ben Barba, Michael Ennis, Chris Heighington, Luke Lewis, James Maloney and Matt Prior have all played on the first Sunday in October, winning a combined four premierships.Thats really important for us, having senior players, to enjoy the week, enjoy the hype, and know that its one week away from a grand final, Flanagan said.But knowing that theres a game of footy still to be played and making tackles and making runs still counts.
