The 2023–24 Pro50 Championship was the 21st edition of the Pro50 Championship, a List A cricket tournament that was played in Zimbabwe. It started on 20 October 2023 and the final game was played on 2 December 2023.[1][2] The Mountaineers were the defending champions.[3][4]

Games took place at various grounds such as the Takashinga Cricket Club, Mutare Sports Club, Queens Sports Club, Kwekwe Sports Club, Harare Sports Club and Masvingo Sports Club. The teams Eagles, Tuskers, Rhinos, Mountaineers and Southern Rocks played each other in a double round-robin group stage format, following which the top two (2) teams in the points table will competed in the final on 2 December 2023.

The Mashonaland Eagles won the tournament after only losing 1 game out of 9. They defeated the Mid West Rhinos in the final. Antum Naqvi was named the batter and player of the Pro50 Championship, while Tapiwa Mufudza was named bowler of the tournament.[5]

Following the Zim Afro T10, Zimbabwe Cricket and the Lahore Qalandars parent of Durban Qalandars signed an MoU to send five Pakistani fast bowlers from the local Qalandars High Performance Center in the Zimbabwe domestic series.[6] Five players namely: Mohammad Adil, Mamoon Riaz, Ameer Hamza, Jalat Khan and Salman Mirza; were sent to Zimbabwe as part of this camp.[7] Four out of the five players were in the squads in the remaining four games on November 24 and 26, many of whom made their List A debut.
