That was a few seasons ago. I remember it because I think 5 of his 7 victims were fellow Zim batters!

I count Mitchell as a Rhodesian player as that is his international status and he didn't play for SA. But not him ( he's second on the list)

Is he the one? I was least expecting him not to have an FC hundred, but just had a hunch. Are there people above him too?

Indeed it is Duncan. 20 FC 50s but no conversions. 4095 runs at 23.67.

foreignfield,CrimsonAvenger : 3
rusty17 : 2
MidWest Rhinos, eugene : 1

Another T20 stat along similar lines...

11. Who is the highest Zimbabwean wicket taker in T20 without at least one 4 wicket haul or better?

Oh, I misread the question and looked for someone without a three-wicket haul--Meth might be the leader with only a two-fer :)

Meth is the leader with only a two-fer, that is right

There you are. This one may change hands soon with Jarvis poised on 42. Dabengwa's best is 3-13.

foreignfield : 4
CrimsonAvenger : 3
rusty17 : 2
MidWest Rhinos, eugene : 1

Ok, back to batting.

12. Who is the Rhodesian/Zim batsman with the most List A runs but no score of 50 or more?

I'll say Tawanda Mupariwa. But I seem to research to deeply & miss the bleeding obvious.
