He is a right-handed batsman, and right-arm medium pace bowler, and is described as a batting all-rounder.

His best performances with both bat and ball came against Eaglesvale School, against whom he scored 96 not out and claimed eight wickets in separate matches. In 1993, he was captain of the Harare Schools B team in national primary schools week. He advanced to Prince Edward School, where he also captained teams throughout his years at the school, although cricket was not his main sport, instead taking third place behind swimming and triathlon. He was a member of the school's first team for four years, where his best score was 133 not out against Peterhouse. He made his first-class debut in 2001, appearing for the CFX Academy.
