Harry Peter Rinke (born 5 November 1981) is a former Zimbabwean cricketer who debuted for the international team against Kenya in 2005–06.

International career

Rinke made 168 runs during the four-match series, more than any other Zimbabwean batsman, his innings of 72 in the fourth match was the highest by a Zimbabwean in the series, and he was the only Zimbabwean to make more than one half-century.[1] Rinke's medium pace also yielded three wickets during the series. His successes against Kenya saw him picked again for the 7-ODI tour of the West Indies in April and May 2006.

Domestic career

After Sri Lanka match, he left Zimbabwe and since then played in the UK for Scarborough CC in the Oxbridge Yorkshire ECB County Premier League. Often he also expressed his desire to return in Zimbabwe and play for the country.

Coaching career
