Conan Brewer (born 30 September 1982) is a Zimbabwean former cricketer.[1] He played thirteen first-class matches between 2001 and 2004.[2]

Career

Brewer early exposure to cricket began at Lilfordia Primary School, under the guidance of Iain Campbell.[3] As an opening batsman, he consistently scored in the thirties and forties, and later demonstrated his skills at Prince Edward High School, scoring significant runs against various teams.[3]

Brewer served as captain of the school's first team in Form Three, but relinquished the role in his final two years due to the pressure of captaincy combined with wicket-keeping and opening the batting.[3] Conan's representative cricket career began at the Under-19 level, participating in two Under-19 Cricket World Cups and touring with the Zimbabwe Development team.[3]

Conan also played for Old Hararians Sports Club in Harare, often opening the innings, and has delivered numerous fifties and a high score of 94.[3] He also played for Mvurwi in the Mashonaland Districts winter cricket league.[3] He was influenced by Steve Rhodes, former Worcestershire wicket-keeper, and Dave Houghton, his coach at the academy.[3]
