Natsai Mushwange (born 9 February 1991, Mhangura, Zimbabwe) is an international cricketer. He made his ODI debut in a match against the Netherlands. He is an all-rounder. Mushwange's favourite cricketer is Pakistan's all-rounder Shahid Afridi; he is his favourite cricketer because Afridi is a flamboyant batter with a good ability to ball legbreak, similar to that of Mushangwe.[1] While representing the Zimbabwe XI in a match, Mushanwe scored 7 runs before getting out. He didn't take any wickets, but did have a low economy rate.[2] In the next match Mushanwge showed his all-round ability by scoring 11 runs for the final wicket and taking the wicket of Netherlands opener Eric Szwarczynski.[3]
He made his Test match debut for Zimbabwe against Bangladesh on 3 November 2014.[4]
Early and domestic career
Mushangwe is a leg-spinner. He is an excellent turner of the ball, and, like his stats say, he is an economical bowler, not conceding many runs, and also possesses the ability to take plenty of wickets. Mushangwe is part of the emerging Zimbabwean players to help Zimbabwean Cricket improve and to aid its return to the Test Arena[5] which Zimbabwe stopped playing in 2006 but will return to after the 2011 Cricket World Cup.[6] Mushangwe also has the ability to bat in the lower order. He has a high score of 53, and his batting gives the selectors a certain amount of safeguard about the top order of the team.
