I want to perform and achieve. I just can’t wait to get started,” he said. Muzarabani impressed in the World Cup qualifier earlier this year, taking career-best figures of four for 47 against Afghanistan. Head coach David Ripley said: “We’ve been talking to Blessing for quite some time. “He’s got a lot to learn and he knows it, but we’re looking forward to helping him achieve his potential over the next few years.”
