  • Mpumelelo "Pommie" Mbangwa (born 26 June 1976) is a Zimbabwean cricket commentator and former cricketer. A right-arm fast bowler, he played 15 Test matches and 29 One Day Internationals for Zimbabwe between 1996 and 2002. After being dropped from the international side after the 2002 Champions Trophy, he took up work as a cricket commentator for television, and he has remained in that line of work since. He holds the unique distinction of being the only batsman to have scored exactly the same amount of career runs in two formats (ODIs and Tests) with 34 runs each apiece in ODIs and Tests. His nickname "Pommie" (was also simply called "Pom") is a shortened version and anglicisation of his full name, dubbed to him by former Zimbabwe player Gavin Rennie was during their junior levels as everyone had trouble saying his first name. It is often mistakenly attributed to his cultivated accent a testament to his formative school years that were undertaken at a private school in Zimbabwe, a fact that is made obvious by his intonation and pronunciation of certain words and phrases. Given a qualification of twenty innings, Mbangwa has the lowest batting average (2.00) of all Test cricketers. However, as of 2008, he was one of nine Zimbabweans to have taken 30 Test wickets, and of those only Heath Streak and David Brain took them at a lower average. He is also currently regarded as one of the best international cricket commentators and he is also the leading cricket commentator from Zimbabwe. (en)
