Brant was born in Harare. A left-arm medium-fast bowler, his senior cricket career began in the 2001–02 Australian cricket season, where he played for Queensland. Having played in the Pura Cup for two years and being part of Queensland's title in 2001/02, he joined Essex the following year.[2] An average of less than 30, and a best bowling tally of 6 for 45 couldn't save Essex from immediate relegation, however. Brant played frequently for Essex in the first half of the 2004 season, before being dropped from the first team. He later played again for Queensland.
