Should the article not be amended to refer to Heath, whom I personally know, as a 'former' Zimbabwian cricketeer. He resigned from the ZC, as Zimbabwe Cricket is presently known, in 2005, and has played no further games in Zimbabwe.--Jslasher 06:48, 23 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2006-04-23T06:48:00.000Z","author":"Jslasher","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Jslasher-2006-04-23T06:48:00.000Z-Untitled","replies":["c-Stephen_Turner-2006-04-23T07:03:00.000Z-Jslasher-2006-04-23T06:48:00.000Z"]}}-->

Thanks for your note, but personally I'm happy with still calling him a Zimbabwean cricketer: after all, he's still Zimbabwean and still a cricketer. It does mention his international retirement in the article.

Heath is alive, and despite being diagnosed with cancer, is more than capable of replying to false rumours about his passing. 120.144.131.166 (talk) 09:07, 23 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20230823090700","author":"120.144.131.166","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-120.144.131.166-20230823090700-Whitemancanjump23-20230823064800","replies":[]}}-->
