Timycen Maruma, born on 19 April 1988 in Harare, Zimbabwe, is a leg spinner who is also a useful lower order batter. Maruma uses his height to good effect while bowling to extract good bounce off the wicket and surprise the batsmen.
Playing for the Easterns in the Zimbabwe divisions, Maruma made a huge impact almost single handedly leading his team to the title. The right hander picked up an impressive 36 wickets at a really good average of 17.62. He was rewarded for his fine bowling with a call up to the national team for the World Cup T20 in South Africa in 2007. He did not get a chance to showcase his skills however as he was restricted to the bench.
He continued to raise eyebrows at the domestic level and was eventually handed his international debut in an ODI against South Africa. He struggled to make an impact failing with both bat and ball as Zimbabwe were routed by 5 wickets. He made his T20 debut against Sri Lanka later that year, but was given a chance to showcase his bowling skills.
He has had a brilliant First-class career and he went on to make his Test debut as an batting opener for Zimbabwe against Bangladesh in April 2013. That is the only Test he has played so far.
Maruma has shown a lot of promise and is considered as one of the finest slow bowlers in the Zimbabwean domestic scene. Though he's had a stuttering start to his international career, things look bright for this young all rounder.
