Tadiwanashe Marumani is quite possibly the "next big thing" in Zimbabwean cricket.
Such is his talent; he was fast-tracked to the national side only 6 weeks after his first-class debut (March 2021). He has since gone on to play 25-plus white-ball matches for his county over the past 18 months.
The former Zimbabwe age-group star, who was the fourth leading run-scorer (257 runs at 42.83 with a strike rate of 110.77) at the ICC Under-19 World Cup in January 2020, broke into the Southern Rocks side and excelled, particularly in the T20 format.
He announced himself with a debut 30-ball 60, then followed up with scores of 63* (42), 52 (35), and 51 (34) in 3 of his next 4 matches to finish as the T20 Championships’ second leading run-scorer with 228 runs at 57 (narrowly behind Craig Ervine, with Brendan Taylor in third), all with a strike rate of 159.44.
Marumani quite literally banged down the door, culminating with Zimbabwe selection for the home T20 series against Pakistan (April 2021). In his third T20, he showed glimpses of his undoubted talent hitting a 26-ball 35. He would then go on to belt scores of 82 (73), and 48 (49) in the first two 50-over matches for Zimbabwe A against their South African counterparts the following month.
Over the next few months, he would go on to play a string of ODI's and T20I's for Zimbabwe. Whilst he has yet to replicate his domestic form at the international level, Marumani is still very young and has clearly shown the talent that’ll see him become a key player for Zimbabwe in future.
The hard-hitting opener recently starred for the Eagles, topping the Pro50 Championship run charts (428 runs at 47.55 with a strike rate of 106.20), before belting a 22-ball half century (71 from 41 balls) for Northerns v Southerns in the Regional's Pro50 (Nov 2022). He returned to the national fold, playing against the touring Irish side in January, before hitting 66 v the Pakistan Shaheens for the A side in May 2023.
Marumani is now looking for opportunities abroad to continue his development. Whilst known for his batting, he is also a very handy gloveman and is more than happy to either bat or keep next season. An outstanding talent, one we highly recommend for any club, league or franchise tournament.
