4. Denis and Heath Streak
Denis Streak, the former player took cricket as his career before Zimbabwe got the status of Test-playing nation. However, he didn’t get enough opportunities to play for the national side. On the other hand, his son Heath Streak did a commendable job with the bat and ball for Zimbabwe.
Heath Streak had an illustrious international career where he grabbed 216 wickets in Tests and 239 in ODIs. He also played 23 T20s where he scalped 24 wickets. The senior Streak disappeared from the competitive cricket for some time. And, he again marked his arrival back into the first-class cricket at the age of 47.
In 1996, after a long gap of 11 years, the senior Streak played for Matabeleland. Interestingly, his son also played in the same team that became champions of Lonrho Logan Cup after beating Mashonaland Country Districts in the tournament final.
