He has been known for his 163* against Pakistan in a lone test match on 2 September 2011.[1]

Career

Mawoyo led Zimbabwe during the 2003–2004 U-19 World cup. He was not really in form averaging just 20 with a highest score of 32 not out.[2] He was called up for a Zimbabwe A match against Bangladesh in 2006.[3] He made his ODI debut against Bangladesh the same year. He scored just 10 and 14, so He was not included in the Zimbabwean World Cup Squad the next year.

Mawoyo was once appointed Zimbabwe A captain but was stripped of caaptiancy following inaproppriate behaviour by the team which was at Bulawayo camp.[4] He still remained a good batsman in Zimbabwe, being the Highest Run Scorer in the Metbank one-day competition with 424 runs averaging 60.57.

Mawayo Made his test debut against Bangladesh on 4 August 2011. He scored 43 & 35 on debut. On 2 September at Bulawayo, Mawoyo carried his bat through the innings in the only Test against Pakistan, scoring an unbeaten 163. He was the third Zimbabwean batsman to do so in a Test innings, after Mark Dekker in 1993 and Grant Flower in 1998. All three men achieved the feat in Tests against Pakistan.[5]

He returned to ODIs in 2013, scoring a slow 9(26b,0x4,0x6).[6] In the first test, he scored 50(95,7x4) and 9(18b,2x4).[7] In the second test, he scored 8(30b,1x4) and 0(2b).[8]
