Antum Naqvi is, without doubt, the most exciting prospect in Zimbabwean domestic cricket. His sheer weight of runs, across the three formats, have propelled his name into national frame.
Following a quite remarkable maiden Logan Cup campaign in 2023 (379 runs at 94.75), he has continued to shine in the Pro 50 competition, where he currently tops the run charts (487 runs at 97.40). This, coming only a few weeks after guiding his Takashinga Patriots to the National Premier League T20 title, courtesy of his MVP exploits.
However, it’s his penchant for big runs that have caught the eye. Naqvi became only the 21st player in history to score centuries in his first two first-class innings (140*, and 103), before notching up his third Logan Cup ton (108) to round off his maiden campaign.
Roll on the recent Pro50 competition, and Naqvi would produce scores of 41, 128*, 57, 100, 15, and 146 to see him head the List A leader board after six rounds (487 runs at 97.40).
Not content with churning runs, the Rhinos star has also excelled with his off spin. 18 wickets at 24.44, including two 4-wicket hauls and best match figures of 5-74 in his 5 Logan Cup (FC) matches, then a further 11 wickets in white ball cricket, averaging 20.14 and 17, in List A and T20, respectively.
The Belgian-born all-rounder, who grew up in Sydney (Australia), has quite the future ahead of him. Having already excelled in Sydney Grade cricket, and now domestic cricket in Zimbabwe, he has generated Franchise interest from the Peshawar Zalmi, and Jamaica Tallawahs. It seems only a matter of time before he’s playing for Zimbabwe, and in the global Franchise tournaments.
