Sikandar Raza Butt (Punjabi: سکندر رضا; born 24 April 1986) is a Pakistani-born Zimbabwean international cricketer. He is an all-rounder, who bats right-handed and bowls right arm off-spin. He made his international debut for Zimbabwe in May 2013 and is the first player from his country to score a T20I century. He is the current captain of Zimbabwe T20I team.

Raza was born in Sialkot to a Punjabi-speaking Kashmiri Muslim family. He studied at the Pakistan Air Force Public School Lower Topa for three years and aspired to be a Pakistan Air Force pilot, but his dreams were cut short when he failed a vision test that was mandatory for selection in the Pakistan airforce at that time.
