Biography

McMillan attended Harare's CFX Academy and was recognized as a standout school cricketer in 2000.[3] His cricketing interest was developed by his father, a former club player.[3] Raised in a farming family that frequently relocated, Campbell lived with his mother in Harare after his parents' divorce.[3] His formal cricket education began at Springvale House in Marondera, where he developed from a reluctant participant to a talented all-rounder under his coach, named Jogee.[3]

His skill progression led to selections for the national Under-14, Under-16, and Under-19 teams.[3] Despite a back injury, he secured six wickets in the 2000 Under-19 Cricket World Cup in Sri Lanka and later participated in a Zimbabwe Development tour to Kenya.[3] His high school career highlights included scoring 87 off 46 balls in a critical match against Falcon College and achieving three five-wicket hauls, including a seven-wicket stand against Hilton College.[3]

On his own initiative, McMillan applied to the CFX Academy for 2001.[3] While high school limited his club cricket participation, he played winter cricket for Hwedza following brief stints with Watershed XI and Ruzawi River.[3] His notable performances included scoring 67 against Goromonzi and a five-wicket haul against Harare South.[3] He has also been associated with Alexandra Sports Club in Harare.[3]
