Tinotenda Confidence Mutombodzi (born December 21, 1990) is a Zimbabwean cricketer. He began his career as a leg-spin bowler, but now plays principally as a batsman. He made his One Day International debut against the West Indies in February 2013, and his T20 International debut in March 2013.

Early career

Mutombodzi was born in Harare. At the age of nine, he took up cricket and represented Zimbabwe's Under-13 and Under-16 teams. He was part of the Zimbabwe's Under-19 side in the 2008 Under-19 World Cup and also Zimbabwe's Under-19 Side that toured New Zealand in 2010. His performances in the Under-19 side included scoring 43 against Pakistan Under-19 team in an unofficial ODI and also picking up 4/27 against the same side in the same series.

International career

West Indies tour 2012-2013

Mutombodzi was named in the 24-man squad for the West Indian tour.[1] He replaced Prosper Utseya in the third ODI. He scored 13 runs until he was run out by Dwayne Bravo. He was the best bowler in the Match for Zimbabwe, picking up 2/35 in his ten overs with a good economy rate of 3.50 runs per over. He made his T20 debut on March 2, 2013. It was not as good as his ODI debut, as he just made 2 runs and went for 0-20 in his two overs. In the next T20, he took his first T20 wickets, with figures of 2-28 from his four overs.

Bangladesh in Zimbabwe

Mutombodzi was named in a 21-man squad against Bangladesh at home.[2] He played the first T20I, scoring 12 not out from 9 balls and had figures of 0-33 in 4 overs. He also was involved in two run outs during the match, which Zimbabwe won by 6 runs.[3]
