A useful all round player, who bowls at a lively pace, swinging the ball either way, Meth was forced to rise rapidly through the ranks because of Zimbabwe's shortage of options and he suffered as a result. He was discarded after the 2006 tour of the Caribbean and while he remained on the fringes, he has not been able to advance his claims and has moved to South Africa to try to move his career on. He is a sound batsman who improvises well and thus shows good all-round potential. A very good hockey player, he has an excellent eye for the ball.
