Move follows player unease

Zimbabwe Cricket has bowed down to pressure and has revised the agreements with players who had received lower-grade central contracts last month.

Among those to be re-elevated was key batsman Brendan Taylor, the star of Zimbabwe's remarkable ICC World Twenty20. He is believed to have been upgraded from a C to an A contract, putting him on a par with Tatenda Taibu and Vusi Sibanda.

Sources close to the players have told Cricinfo that the upgrades took place before the ICC World Twenty20 after a number of players expressed unhappiness with the deals on offer. But even if that is not the case, Taylor's performances in South Africa guaranteed that he would be given a new contract.
