Absolutely disgraceful from the Zimbabwean press.  Glad to see that Brendan Taylor has come out and apologised on his countries behalf even though he was under absolutely no option to do so.

Stuff like this is so crass and horrible it actually makes my blood boil.

What a disgraceful article, attacking a man who has obviously had troubles, and his past experiences have no bearing on his honesty now.

Makes you feel sick, hope the scumbag who wote this is sacked.

Terrible article, but (and I'm not sure if it has been mentioned in a different thread), I thought claiming the catch was disgraceful and was completely against the Spirit of Cricket. Mooney would have known that he was touching the room, as even if he didn't feel it he could have seen it. Yet he chose to claim the catch. Pretty. Average.
