Andy Flower and Duncan Fletcher are not the only two well known Zimbabwean coaches, we were also linked to Dave Houghton who politely declined. We also had an excellent CEO from Zimbabwe who did his part to professionalize BCB in the early 2000's. If BCB plays its cards right they might be able to get either or both of them. I reckon they can offer a lot more than the coaches who have applied for the job.
I don't think Flower/Heath have been fired or let go. They just haven't been taken onto the tour, probably for financial reasons. They have effectively been demoted from coach to a consultant.
