Profile and recent form

A hard-hitting allrounder and the former captain of the Zimbabwe team in the shorter forms of the game, Elton Chigumbura, made First-Class at an age of 15 for the Mashonaland Eagles in 2002 and has represented his nation in two Under-19 World Cups.

A lovely stroke-maker, Chigumbura's attacking batting has often turned matches around. A sweet striker of the ball, the right-hander likes to play lofted shots straight down the ground.

The 30-year old is one of Zimbabwe's most experienced allrounders and captained his side in the 2015 World Cup. His recent form has been decent with 191 in runs column and 3 wickets in his last 8 matches.
