He played in the 2014 ICC World Cricket League Division Five tournament.<\/p>\n<p>In July 2018, he was part of Tanzania\u2019s squad in the Eastern sub region group for the 2018\u201319 ICC World Twenty20 Africa Qualifiers.<\/p>\n<p>As it currently stands, the Tembo Warriors go into the break at the top of the table after winning all three of their openinground matches to bag six points.<\/p>\n<p>However, with two points for a win, both the Serengeti Giants and the Kilimanjaro Aces will be looking to close the small gap that has opened up between themselves and the leaders.<\/p>\n<p>As the second round of fixtures are expected to start in January and the third finishing round in February, it is still early to make any assumptions about how the final standings will look as winners may also lose their matches in favour of the losers.<\/p>\n<p>The 50 over men\u2019s tournament is the first of its kind in Tanzania, with national senior and junior team players competing with and alongside those who have excelled during recently concluded tournaments.<\/p>\n<p>The idea is to enable local players be competent enough in 50-over matches and stand chances of competing against well drilled countries in the likes of Kenya, South Africa or Namibia when it comes to international ICC tournaments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Tanzania.
