The 2015–16 Pro50 Championship was the fourteenth edition of the Pro50 Championship, a List A cricket tournament in Zimbabwe. The competition ran from 4 November 2015 to 6 January 2016. In a change from the previous edition, teams played each other twice (instead of three times) during the round-robin, and there was no final.[1]

Mashonaland Eagles won the tournament for the fourth time, with five victories and one defeat.[2]

Mid West Rhinos batsman Prince Masvaure was the tournament's leading run-scorer with a total of 250 runs.[3] Matabeleland Tuskers bowler Tawanda Mupariwa was the leading wicket-tacker with a total of 13 wickets.[4]
