For the first time since their thrilling victory in the T20 World Cup 2024, the Indian cricket team will play again. The five-match Twenty20 International series between Zimbabwe and India begins on Saturday, July 7 at Harare Sports Club.
Zimbabwe’s last T20I assignment in May ended in a 1-4 series loss against Bangladesh, and they failed to qualify for the recent T20 World Cup 2024. Shubman Gill is leading the new-look Indian team, which includes uncapped players Abhishek Sharma, Riyan Parag, Harshit Rana, and Tushar Deshpande all vying for their first international cap. No players from the World Cup-winning team will be included in the team for the first two Twenty20 Internationals.
