Seamer Chris Mpofu is in line for an international recall as Zimbabwe look to bolster their ranks ahead of the second Test against New Zealand, which starts from August 6. With more than half the squad afflicted by the illness that kept Sean Williams off the field for the entire New Zealand innings, changes to the current 15-man group are expected and ESPNcricinfo has learned that Mpofu is being seriously considered.The seamer has not played a Test in five years, since New Zealand last toured Zimbabwe in 2011. He was part of the XI that took the one-off game to the wire and finished with five wickets in the match. Mpofu has since been plagued by a lower back injury but has played international cricket in shorter formats, with his last ODI and T20 both coming in 2015. Mpofu also played throughout last season, including three matches in the Logan Cup where he claimed 11 wickets at 23.81, and it is understood his wicket-taking ability is what Zimbabwe are after.We dont have a powerhouse of seamers which you can pick and choose from, Makhaya Ntini, Zimbabwes interim head coach, said. For this match, we thought if we have more power in the batting line-up, well have time to be able to take wickets.However, on a slow, low Bulawayo surface, Zimbabwes attack of two seamers, one specialist spinner and four part-timers was only able to take six New Zealand wickets and, of those, the frontline seamers only took two. A lack of experience in the pack is also a problem - the four quicks had only two Test caps between them before this match.Their inexperience showed when both Donald Tiripano and Michael Chinouya wasted the new ball and did not make New Zealands openers play enough. They also stayed away from the short ball, which had worked well for Neil Wagner in Zimbabwes innings. The pair improved with the second new ball, tightened their lines and asked some questions and Ntini has been working with them on applying pressure for longer periods.They need to search more, they need to hit one side of the wicket, they need to be able to bowl to fields and they must not be greedy, Ntini said. But they are learning. From a fast bowlers point of view, what we had to mention to them is to pay attention to which ball gets hit for four and then try to correct that. You want to cut off the boundaries. If the boundary ball becomes a single, you are able to understand where you need to improve so when you get hit, you have to think - which ball was that. Then you will understand what not to do.Apart from Tiripano and Chinouya, Ntini has also been teaching this to the other members of his squad which include Njabulo Ncube, who also played in the 2011 Test, and Taurai Muzarabani, neither of whom were picked for the first Test. Zimbabwe also have the option of calling up Shingi Masakadaza, who topped the Logan Cup wicket-takers list and performed well against South Africa A.At the other end, changes are also expected in the batting line-up, especially the top order, although Ntini was careful not to be too harsh on his young top two. Chamu Chibhabha was on debut and Brian Chari had just two caps to his name before this Test. Chari then had to keep wicket as well. We cant judge a person by one single game, Ntini said. For example, with Chari, he kept for two days and he is not a wicketkeeper and then he got out. But yes, Tino (Mawoyo) has also showed signs of being one of the top-order players. Whatever changes we do, they have to be needed, we wont just do them.Mawoyo, who suffered bruising around his right thumb after being hit by Tim Southee in the three-day warm-up match, is hopeful to be fit for the second Test. Although scans did not reveal a fracture, Mawoyo was unable to hold a bat after suffering the blow and did not hit any balls during this Test. He will resume training on Tuesday.

SUVA, Fiji -- Former San Francisco 49ers running back Jarryd Hayne has failed in his bid to win selection in the Fiji rugby sevens team to compete at the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.Hayne pre-empted a scheduled announcement by the Fiji Rugby Union with a Facebook post Monday saying his time with the Fiji squad has ended.The former National Rugby League star who won a place on the 49ers roster as a rookie last year said he met with Fiji coach Ben Ryan last Friday and agreed he hasnt done enough to win Olympic selection.As much as I would have loved to go to Rio, I too knew I wasnt ready yet, he said. During my time with the team I pushed my body above and beyond. I used all my experience as a professional athlete and have tried every day and in every way possible to make this team and make it better but unfortunately, time has been against me.Fiji will start as favorite to win the gold medal at Rio de Janiero in the first Olympic rugby tournament since 1924. The Fijians won the World Sevens Series title in the season just ended, holding off South Africa and New Zealand, and have won the world championship of sevens in consecutive years.Hayne was a late addition this season, after quitting the NFL, and struggled to adapt to the pace and fitness demands of sevens -- a modified version of the traditional rugby in which teams play several matches in tournaments which last two to three days.Ive loved every minute of training with the Fiji Rugby 7s, Hayne said. Not only are they back-to-bacck world champions but they are a bunch of guys who have welcomed me into the team as one of their own family.ddddddddddddHayne, who has played rugby league for Australia, said his time with the Fiji team was an amazing journey for me and a truly humbling experience.Haynes post suggests he wont pursue his career in rugby sevens any further. Australian media reports suggest he is likely to return to the National Rugby League, though he is thought also to have been courted by Australian rugby union teams.For now, Ill be in camp with the team until mid-week before heading back home to Sydney for some time out and will determine my next steps from there, he said. Ill enjoy watching from afar and wish the team all the best of luck on their road to Rio.Coach Ryan will announce his Olympic squad later in the week. He said time had always been against Hayne and he had no choice but to tell him his journey towards Rio had come to an end.It was a very short runway for him to get to the fitness levels and understanding needed and go past any of our current squad members, Ryan said. Knowing that, we both also felt it was worth giving it a crack and seeing how far he could go.He also added hugely to the squad with his attitude off and on the field and I have no doubt this has improved everyones performance levels and helped the team in their pursuit of Olympic success.
