Blessing Muzarabani will play domestic cricket in Zimbabwe as an overseas player this season, having put his international career on hold last year by signing a Kolpak deal with Northamptonshire to play in county cricket.

Muzarabani, a tall, 23-year-old fast bowler, played 11 times in all formats for Northamptonshire this season, taking four wickets in his two County Championship games. He will play for Eagles in their Logan Cup curtain-raiser against Rhinos this week, which starts on December 12.

There are various other player movements of note, with Brendan Taylor and Kyle Jarvis joining the new Rangers side, which is otherwise dominated by young players and run by the Alistair Campbell high performance programme. Meanwhile, Richmond Mutumbami has joined Mountaineers, and Luke Jongwe has returned to Tuskers.

The start of the domestic season was delayed, while ZC waited on funds from the ICC following its ban from membership.

Each team will play eight Logan Cup games - two against each opponent - across the ten gameweeks, which run until February 16. All games will be played in Harare.
