It is with great sadness that Zimbabwe Cricket has learnt of the passing of Life Vice President, David Lewis. He passed away in Johannesburg aged 85.

He captained the Rhodesia/ZImbabwe side for almost a decade and in 73 matches for his country he scored 3254 runs at 30.69 including eight hundreds.

After retiring he remained in the game as an administrator, president of the Zimbabwe board and was eventually awarded the honorary title of Life Vice President, a prestige he shared with Life Presidents David Ellman-Brown and Alwyn Pichanik and Life Vice Presidents Don Arnott and Bryan Thorne.

He will be sadly missed.
