Gumbo gives Botswana-based duo the nod

Lesotho and Zimbabwe will join the Zebras to make the three teams who will play at the  tournament.Former Township Rollers and Chiefs coach, Rahman Gumbo, has given Chaka and Sibanda the nod again after handing them their first call-ups last year when the Warriors visited Burundi.

Gumbo said the two would join a locally based squad. He confirmed that none of his foreign-based stars will make the trip to Gaborone: "We will not bring any of our foreign based players because the idea is to give the locally based guys a chance. Arnold (Chaka) and Mandla (Sibanda) will join us," Gumbo told Mmegi Sport.The Warriors and Lesotho's team will arrive in Gaborone on Sunday.
