Very good story. It did not take much at the time to realise that both players were in deep deer trouble when they wore the arm bands. I support them but the cost they have to pay is unbelievable.
The wolrd has to withdraw support for the Mugabe regime, sending home diplomats would be a good start. The sooner Mugabe falls from power, by revolution or other means, the better.
