Calton Takawira is an exciting batting all-rounder currently pushing for selection in Zimbabwe’s domestic cricket this summer. Having represented Zimbabwe at the Under-19 level, he was a vital part of the squad that competed in the ICC Under-19 World Cup in South Africa in January 2024. During the tournament, Takawira impressed with the ball, producing his best figures of 3 for 44 in nine overs against Ireland.

Prior to the World Cup, he demonstrated his all-round capabilities with a quickfire 80 off just 40 balls in a preparatory series in India. Although opportunities with the bat were limited during the World Cup itself, Takawira is primarily viewed as a batting all-rounder, with a strong potential to make his mark in Zimbabwe’s domestic competitions this season.

As a pace bowling all-rounder with promising talent on both fronts, Takawira is regarded as a serious prospect for Zimbabwean cricket. Looking ahead, he is eager to gain further experience by playing abroad next season to accelerate his development and strengthen his credentials for higher honours.

Note: Requires 4 FC matches to become eligible for an International Sportsperson Visa.
