Sikandar Raza Butt

Sikandar Raza But, one of Zimbabwe’s all time favourites takes time to talk to Dean du Plessis about his recent signing up with CPL team the Trinbago Night Riders, as well as his childhood in Pakistan. Raza was hoping to become a fighter pilot, but that was not to be. He fondly remembers how he was picked to play for the Southern Rocks, a former franchise based in the Southern part of Zimbabwe, where he rubbed shoulders with a number of players both locally based and around the world. He remembers Zimbabwe’s tour of Pakistan in 2015, Zimbabwe’s test win against Pakistan, the country of his birth, and the euphoria of beating Sri Lanka in Sri Lanka in 2017. Raza also admits that should he ever be offered the captaincy, he would consider it a challenge he would relish.
