Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) have signed Zimbabwe fast bowler Blessing Muzarabani, who will join the squad for the upcoming TATA Indian Premier League 2026 season. He is scheduled to arrive in Kolkata on 17 March (Tuesday)

The 6 ft 8” right-arm quick has emerged as one of Zimbabwe’s leading pace bowlers in the shortest format, known for his steep bounce and ability to strike in key phases of the innings. Muzarabani brings significant T20 experience, having claimed over 90 wickets in more than 80 T20 Internationals at an average of around 21, with best figures of 3/8.

His pace and consistency across global leagues and international cricket add further depth to KKR’s pace attack heading into the season.
