Chevrons captain Sikandar Raza has finally collected the vehicle he was awarded by President Emmerson Mnangagwa, last month, marking the completion of Presidential honours extended to outstanding sports captains for the 2025 season.
Raza, who returned to Zimbabwe this week following international franchise cricket commitments, received his vehicle on Wednesday. He was out of the country on 6 December, last year, when the official handover ceremony took place at the State House, where the President presented vehicles to Dynamos’ then-captain Emmanuel Jalai and Tabeth Mutinhiri of Herentals Queens.
Scottland captain, Walter Musona, also received a vehicle after guiding the newly promoted side to a league title in their debut Premier Soccer League season.
With Raza having taken delivery of his car, the Presidential recognition extended to captains who demonstrated leadership and excellence in 2025 has been fully concluded.
Raza was honoured for leading the Chevrons to qualification for the 2026 ICC T20 World Cup, a milestone achievement that reignited national pride in Zimbabwean cricket.
The gesture highlights the continued appreciation of sporting excellence and the role of sports leaders in elevating Zimbabwe’s global profile.
Meanwhile, the T20 World Cup begins on February 7 in Sri Lanka and India, with Zimbabwe set to play their group-stage matches in Sri Lanka.
