Zimbabwe is one among the bottom-ranked teams in the ICC World rankings but it has a huge amount of talent in their side. Chamu Chibhabha is one such star player who has the potential to revive the Zimbabwean cricket. Chamu has so far scored 2286 runs in one-day internationals. He has proven his all-round worth for his team with his best bowling figures of 4/25 for Zimbabwe.

Chibhabha is also one such batsman who has been given out for handling the ball. While batting, he tried to place the ball, but the ball bounced back and would hit the stumps. Chibhabha tried to place his hand in the route of the ball to prevent it from hitting the stumps but the umpire ruled him out for handling the ball.

Chibhabha became the first Zimbabwean batsman to be given out in this way. Apart from this, he is also the only batsman to lose his wicket against Afghanistan in this fashion.
