If I recall he was a non-travelling reserve for the U19 squad. He was obviously always tall and quick but his radar was wild, ended up getting smashed everywhere. He came up through Harare club cricket, then was in the Africa T20 squad and then went with Taibu’s academy squad to England.

First one wasn't until 1988 so Andy was already too old for that. Grant would have been eligible but it was a weird combined Associates team as in the first post of this thread.

U-19 didn't exist back then. There was a one off tournament in 1988 or something and then then it really started in 1998.

Great work! Just one correction. Tafadzwa Mufambisi from the 2004 batch also played for Zim - 6 ODIs.
Sorry to add to this, William Mashinge played 2 T20s in 2019.
All good. I figured I might miss one or two. Was a slog going through all the players.
