MAKANAKAISHE Charamba continues to underline his status as one of the best sprinters to have emerged from his country following another stellar performance at the Wanda Diamond League last Friday in Doha, Qatar.
Charamba blazed to a second-place finish behind South Africa’s Sinesipho Dambile, as he clocked 19.88 seconds for the second time this month.
Dambile crossed the finish line in a personal best time of 19.74 seconds.
Dominican Republic’s Alexander Ogando was third in a season best of 19.96 seconds.
For Charamba, it was the second time he clocked 19.88 seconds, his personal best this month having first ran the PB at the USATF Lone Star Grand Prix two weeks ago.
The Zimbabwean sprinter is currently ranked seventh in the men’s 200m on the World Rankings.
Fellow Zimbabwean Ashley Miller Kamangirira also lined up for the women’s 400m hurdles.
She finished sixth with a time of 54.33 seconds, as she took on some of the world’s best including world bronze medallist Emma Zapletalová from Slovakia.

She set a national record of 54.08 seconds early this month.
