From Bulawayo, Mhora played two Twenty20 matches for Westerns during the 2009 Metropolitan Bank Twenty20 competition.[1] He scored five runs against Northerns and six against Easterns, coming in low in the batting order in both matches.[2][3] Later in the 2009 season, Mhora made his debut for the Zimbabwean national under-19 side.[4] He scored two ducks in two One Day Internationals (ODIs) against the Pakistan under-19s in 2009,[5][6] He went on to tour Bangladesh with the team the following month, playing in another under-19 ODI, and in July 2010 played two ODIs and two Twenty20 Internationals (T20Is) against the South African under-19s.[7]

After Zimbabwean domestic cricket was reorganised for the 2009–10 season, Mhora was assigned to the new Matabeleland Tuskers franchise, based in Bulawayo. He became a regular in the team's reserves side during the following season, playing three-day, one-day, and Twenty20 matches in Franchise B tournaments.[8] Mhora broke through to the Tuskers' senior side for two limited overs matches during the 2010–11 season, both played at the Queens Sports Club.[9] He scored three runs on debut against the Mountaineers in September 2010, opening the batting with captain Gavin Ewing,[10] and then made 23 from 25 balls the following month against the Southern Rocks, coming in third in the batting order.[11] Mhora is yet to play any further matches for the franchise.[12]
