The team were formed in 2020, to compete in Zimbabwe's two new women's domestic competitions: the Fifty50 Challenge and the Women's T20 Cup.[2] In the Fifty50 Challenge, the side finished bottom of the group, with one win from their six matches.[3] In the Women's T20 Cup, the side finished second in the group stage, winning three of their six matches, to qualify for the final.[4] In the final, they lost to Eagles by 8 wickets.[5]

In 2021–22, they failed to qualify for the final of either competition, finishing third in the Fifty50 Challenge and fourth in the T20 Cup.[6][7] In 2022–23, they again finished third in the Fifty50 Challenge and fourth in the T20 Cup.[8][9]
