Rangarirai Norbert Manyande (born 29 August 1979) is a former Zimbabwean cricketer who played for several domestic teams during the early 2000s. He moved to Namibia later in the decade, and went on to represent the Namibian national side at tournaments in South Africa and Zimbabwe. Having begun his coaching career while still playing in Zimbabwe, Manyande was appointed coach of the Namibian under-19 side in 2013, and has overseen its successful qualification for the 2014 and 2016 Under-19 World Cups.

  1. ^ ESPNcricinfo (1979) and CricketArchive (1982) give conflicting information for Manyande's year of birth. This article, which had him turning 31 in August 2010, appears to confirm 1979 as his year of birth.
