Mpumelelo "Pommie" Mbangwa (born 26 June 1976, Plumtree, Rhodesia) is a former Zimbabwean cricketer. A right-arm fast bowler, he played 15 Tests and 29 One Day Internationals for Zimbabwe between 1996 and 2002. After being dropped from the international side after the 2002 Champions Trophy, he took up work as a cricket commentator for television, and he has remained in that line of work since.

Given a qualification of twenty innings, Mbangwa has the lowest batting average (2.00) of all Test cricketers.^[1] However, as of 2008^[update], he is one of nine Zimbabweans to have taken 30 Test wickets, and of those only Heath Streak and David Brain took them at a lower average.
