Gary Brent (born January 13, 1976 in Sinoia - now Chinhoyi) is a Zimbabwean cricketer.
Generally speaking, he is an inswinging bowler, with a good slow-arm bowling technique. Though his Test batting average lies at a mere 5.83 runs, he is sometimes used further up the order than his average suggests, in order to utilise some of the power his batting possesses in the hope of tiring the opposition with his swift shots and quick runs. His bowling average, however, often hovers around the low-30s, though it can at times fluctuate greatly.
Having missed the cut for the World Cup in 2003, he made the squad for the 2003/04 tour in Australia. Brent was one of the fifteen "rebel" players who were dismissed in 2004 due to a dispute with the Zimbabwean cricket board.
Gary Brent was a surprise call-up during the ICC Champions Trophy (2006), replacing the injured Terrence Duffin. He played just the one match, but proved useful, taking 1/28 from 7 overs, and adding 10 with the bat, not a bad effort considering the Zimbabwean total of 130.
He has been selected for the tour to Bangladesh, starting in late November.
