The body of former Zimbabwe cricket captain and coach, Heath Streak, is set to be cremated, family spokesperson John Rennie, told Newsday.

John said this  in line with the all-rounder legend’s request before he passed on.

Streak succumbed to colon and liver cancer on Sunday morning. He was 49

“You might be aware he has requested to be cremated so there will be no body, there will be no hearse, it will be more of a service as opposed to a funeral,” Rennie said.

A private family funeral will be tomorrow Thursday (tomorrow) and there will be a public funeral on Friday at Mystique Gardens in Bulawayo where his old teammates and his fishing mates will attend.
