While it may be well within ZIM's right to host both matches at Harare...its almost unprecedented to have back to back Tests in the same venue. One of the reasons for having a "series" of Tests is to have a series of different venues. Such scheduling has probably never happened in the modern game.

The reason fans are irked is because playing ZIM is a high-risk, no reward proposition. We don't get any kudos for winning but the implications of winning or not winning by a big enough margin are steep. That being said, we need all the international matches we can get so we should never turn down a chance to play ZIM. Especially in ZIM.
