The Zimbabwe team that reached the Super Six of the 1999 World Cup: Where are they now?

Zimbabwe '99

Stuart Carlisle

A utility player who also served as the Zimbabwean captain, Stuart Carlisle might not have done full justice to his talent. He batted in all positions from numbers one to seven and could be unorthodox at the best of times.

One of finest ODI innings came against Australia in the 2001 triangular series when he scored 119 off 45 balls almost guiding Zimbabwe to the required target of 303. Though Zimbabwe would eventually fall short by two runs, Carlisle's innings is still remembered as one of the best ODI innings till date.

His other innings that stands out is an unbeaten 103 against Bangladesh in a Test match in 2004. He ultimately announced his retirement in 2005 publicly stating that he was tired of the politics in the country.

He received an offer to play for Australia after his retirement but chose to start his business of importing food products instead. He now runs Absolute Sports, a golf store attached to the Royal Harare Golf Club, which hosts the Zimbabwe Open.
