Another Zimbabwe cricketer who changed his profession after retirement is Bryan Strang. Strang was known for his accurate line and lengths and was a regular in the side in the late 90s. However, Strang moved out of Zimbabwe due to political unrest in 2002. He was also vocal about the deteriorating health of Zimbabwe cricket.

Strang was banned by the Zimbabwe Cricket Union in 2005. At a time when he was going through depression, yoga came to Strang's rescue. The former Zimbabwe bowler believes that yoga has changed the way he looks at life and he is now at peace with his life. Strang preaches yoga in Zimbabwe and around the world.
