Ryan Simbi is a highly promising left-arm spinner on the rise in Zimbabwean cricket, widely tipped for future first-class and international honours. A standout performer for Zimbabwe at the ICC U19 Cricket World Cup in South Africa in early 2024, Simbi showcased his control and skill on the global stage, finishing as the team's leading spinner. He claimed six wickets at an average of 27.66, maintaining an impressive economy rate of just 4.04 per over. His best performance came against Namibia, where he delivered a match-winning spell of 3 for 20 from his full 10 overs.

Beyond the World Cup, Simbi has already built a strong reputation domestically. He has played over 100 matches for his local club, taking more than 175 wickets, and remains a key figure at National Premier League level. He has also been involved with Zimbabwe’s National Academy, further cementing his status as one of the country's brightest young spin prospects.

With first-class opportunities on the horizon, Simbi is keen to broaden his experience and continue his development abroad. He is targeting a season in the UK in 2026, where he hopes to test himself in new conditions and take the next step in his cricketing journey.
