Mandla Mashimbyi is impossible to ignore. Tall, bald, and bearded, he carries a presence that fills a room, his deep baritone making even a simple statement feel weighty. Over 11 seasons with the Titans, first as an assistant and later as head coach, he helped guide the men’s teams to nine trophies. His reputation as a tactician and motivator is well-earned, and he has long been regarded as one of South Africa’s most respected cricket minds.
