Blessing Muzarabani

Blessing Muzarabani is a tall and impactful fast bowler from Zimbabwe known for his ability to extract bounce and generate pace, especially in T20 cricket. Standing at 6 feet 8 inches, his physical presence makes him a challenging bowler to face, particularly on hard, bouncy surfaces. Since making his T20I debut in 2016, Muzarabani has grown into Zimbabwe’s most reliable pace option in the shortest format, with over 75 wickets to his name and an economy rate around 7, a testament to his control and accuracy.

In franchise cricket, Muzarabani has impressed in various leagues, most notably the Pakistan Super League where he played a key role in Multan Sultans’ title-winning run in 2021. He has also featured for Gulf Giants in the ILT20 and has been a net bowler in the IPL for Lucknow Super Giants in 2022. His international experience, coupled with exposure to high-pressure league environments, has shaped him into a well-rounded T20 specialist capable of delivering in both powerplay and death overs.

Muzarabani made his official IPL debut in 2025 after being signed by Royal Challengers Bengaluru as a replacement for Lungi Ngidi. While he is yet to make a mark in the tournament, this opportunity offers him the platform to prove himself against the world’s best. With his height, bounce, and ability to hit hard lengths, RCB will hope he adds value to their pace attack as they push for playoff qualification.
