Prosper Utseya was unexpectedly thrust into the
Zimbabwe national team against Sri Lanka at the age of 19 when the
'rebel' players withdrew, but was not given the chance to bat or
bowl on his debut. He is an offspinner who relies mainly on accuracy
and subtle variations without being a sharp turner of the ball. He
is a more than useful batsman who has the potential to be a genuine
all-rounder. Like many other young black players, he was first
introduced to the game at Chipembere Primary School in the Harare
township of Highfield, and won a ZCU scholarship to Churchill High
School. He played for Takashinga Sports Club first team since Form
Two and made his first-class debut for Mashonaland A just before his
16th birthday, scoring a fifty in a tight situation in just his
second match. In 2003-04 he was assigned to Manicaland to strengthen
the provincial side there, and was selected for the CFX Academy in
2004.
