Robin Brown (cricketer)


Robin David Brown is a former Zimbabwe cricketer, playing seven One Day Internationals between 1983 and 1987.

Coaching career

Brown acted as Zimbabwe's assistant coach with the team during the 2007 World Cup. On 28 August 2007 Brown was appointed the national coach of Zimbabwe, taking over from Kevin Curran.
Within two weeks Zimbabwe had beaten Australia in the 2007 ICC World Twenty20 tournament. However, a year later Brown was told by Zimbabwe Cricket that his 12-month contract would not be extended beyond that, and Walter Chawaguta, the former Zimbabwe Under-19 coach, took charge of the national team in August 2008. In 2012 he was appointed head of cricket development by Cricket Kenya and then interim national team coach.
