Indian Cricket Team will be touring Zimbabwe from the 18th of August this year. The India Tour of Zimbabwe will be an opportunity for many young players. India has always sent a second string or sub-string to Zimbabwe and with the kind of depth that Indian cricket is seeing currently, Zimbabwe is going to find it difficult to win. So, the series is a 3-match ODI setup. All the games will be played at the sports club in Harare. Here is an in-depth look at the same:&nbsp;



<h2>India Tour of Zimbabwe 2022 Schedule</h2>



Below is the India VS Zimbabwe 2022 IDI Schedule:

<h2>Indian Team Squad for the India Tour of Zimbabwe</h2>



The BCCI is yet to announce a team for the India Tour of Zimbabwe. But as always, a second-string squad is expected to play against the men in red. Top performers like Rohit, Virat, or Bumrah are not expected to take the flight to the African nation. Hardik or Rishabh can take up the captaincy. The last time when India went to Zimbabwe, was way back in 2016. India won the ODI series 3-0 and the T20I series 2-1. &nbsp;



<h2>Indian Team Preview:&nbsp;</h2>

" class="wp-image-92094"/><figcaption>Hardik who captained India in Ireland can also do a great job in Zimbabwe. IMG SRC: NDTV Sports</figcaption></figure>



The Indian Team is always on the run. The senior players have been rested. The series against the West Indies in the shortest format will take a lot of work from the boys. So, the BCCI is expected to give opportunities to a few fresher faces. Rahul Tripathi is a top prospect. Sanju Samson, Suryakumar Yadav, and Hardik Pandya can be the group of senior players. &nbsp;



<h2>Zimbabwe Team Squad for the India Tour of Zimbabwe</h2>



The Zimbabwe cricket board headed by Hamilton Masakadza is expected to announce the team anytime soon. This happens to be Zimbabwe Cricket?s best opportunity to get back to the full bloom they were always in. Zimbabwe Cricket is a clear case of how much damage politics can do to sport. Ever since the cricketers openly criticized the government, Zimbabwe Cricket has been on a downfall. &nbsp;



<h2>Where can you Watch India VS Zimbabwe?&nbsp;</h2>



The broadcasting rights for the series have been taken by Sony Sports Network. So, every Sony Sports Channel is expected to cover the series. However, on television, Sony Ten 2 is preferred. Also, the Sony Liv App will have live broadcasting of the series. In Zimbabwe, the game can be viewed on SuperSport TV.?







<h2>India Tour of Zimbabwe 2022 Predictions</h2>



The cricket team always has the advantage of home ground and supported crowds on the ground. This is a great opportunity for the Zimbabwe cricket team to show good cricket. Performing well for the Zimbabwe team against India will be like a win for them.

As we were informed that on the India tour of Zimbabwe, Shikhar Dhawan was set to lead the Indian side, now KL Rahul has been drafted into the squad of 16 players and will lead the Indian Camp onwards with Shikhar Dhawan as vice-captain. Initially, he was not part of the Indian squad of 15 players, but he was added to the side on Thursday after he passed fit.



BCCI's medical team has given the green signal after which he was included in the Indian camp. Last week, Rahul was named to India's squad for Asia cup 2022 which is going to be held in UAE from the 27th of august.



In mid-July, Rahul is believed to be in contact with CoVid-19 virus so he was on a two-week post-CoVid recovery routine. Rahul has had to pass a mandatory cardiac test (cardiovascular test) after which he has gradually intensified his training routine. According to some sources, he has already started batting and training stuff over the past week.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/08/file-image-of-Kl-Rahul.webp" alt="KL Rahul in action" class="wp-image-92817"/><figcaption>File Image Of KL Rahul. 
 (IC-AFP)</figcaption></figure>



Rahul played his last match in IPL 2022, after which he suffered from a sports hernia.



Now his name is there to lead the Indian Team in the upcoming three ODIs against Zimbabwe between 18 to 22 August.

India vs Zimbabwe 2022: Rahul Joins As Captain, Shikhar Moves to Vice-Captain's role

india-vs-zimbabwe-2022-rahul-joins-as-captain-shikhar-moves-to-vice-captains-role

India VS Zimbabwe tour will get underway in a few days. On Tuesday morning, the news was floated by the BCCI that Washington Sundar, the right-arm off-break bowler and left-handed batter from Tamil Nadu has injured his shoulder. Shahbaz Ahmed, the left-arm off-spinner from Bengal is set to replace him. Shahbaz has previously played for RCB in the Indian Premier League. The RCB lineup backs this youngster. But who is he? Here is an in-depth look:&nbsp;



<h2>Washington Sundar Injured Before India VS Zimbabwe:&nbsp;</h2>



Washington Sundar, a player who often has an injury concern, is going to miss out on another series due to a shoulder injury. Washington has been an asset to the Indian team, whenever he has been fit and available. But his absence has made way for many other bowlers. It was last year that Ravichandran Ashwin got a surprise call-up in the absence of Washi to play for the ICC T20 World Cup in UAE. This time around as well, it is Shahbaz Ahmed, who happens to be the lucky one. &nbsp;



<h2>Shahbaz Ahmed Gets Maiden India Call-up:&nbsp;</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/08/Shahbaz-Ahmed-min.jpg" alt="India VS Zimbabwe" class="wp-image-92973"/><figcaption>IMG SRC: The Indian Express</figcaption></figure>



This left-arm spinner from Bengal is a true asset to any team that he plays for. He is a Jadeja-like player. He can bat, he can bowl and he is a gun on the field. Coming in from Bengal, he has done decently well for the state team and in the IPL as well. The RCB management has been backing this youngster for the past two seasons. He has match-winning abilities. If effectively backed and he remains fit, he can win games for team India too. With the support and guidance of Virat Kohli, Ahmed has been growing. &nbsp;



<h2>Shahbaz Ahmed Domestic Stats:&nbsp;</h2>

India VS Zimbabwe 2022: Shahbaz Ahmed Set to replace the Injured Washington Sundar. ?

india-vs-zimbabwe-2022-shahbaz-ahmed-set-to-replace-the-injured-washington-sundar

Zimbabwe vs India: India will be taking on Zimbabwe for one last time in this series. The visitors already have won the series as they took an unassailable lead of 2-0 in the second ODI. The hosts have looked absolutely clueless so far as India have totally outplayed them in all aspects of the game.?



Zimbabwe will have a lot of questions to answer when they take the field for the third and final ODI of this series. The task for them will be to prevent a clean sweep whereas India will look to provide Zimbabweans with absolutely no chance of initiating a turnaround.



<h2>Zimbabwe vs India: Preview</h2>



<h3>India</h3>



Gameplan: &nbsp;India has already won the series after their second straight convincing win over Zimbabwe in the second ODI too. The team would be looking to continue their fine winning momentum while captain Rahul will be looking to make some experimental changes in the lineup for the dead rubber. Axar Patel is expected to sit out whilst making a place for Shahbaz Ahmed to make his debut for the Indian team. Deepak Chahar to is supposedly going to return to the side after having a good time with the ball in the first ODI and sitting out in the second ODI.



Possible Playing XI: KL Rahul (c), Ruturaj Gaikwad, Shubaman Gill, Rahul Tripathi, Sanju Samson (wk), Deepak Hooda, Shahbaz Ahmed, Shardul Thakur, Deepak Chahar, Avesh Khan, Kuldeep Yadav.



<h3>Zimbabwe</h3>



Gameplan: Zimbabwe have been absolutely demolished by their oppositions so far in the Zimbabwe vs India ODI series. The Indians have been a step ahead of them in all the circumstances in the two matches that've been played until now in the series. The batting department so far has failed to deliver miserably while the bowlers too haven't been able to have any sort of impact. The <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regis_Chakabva">Regis Chakabva</a> led side will look to turn things around in the last match of the series and prevent the occurrence of a 3-0 clean sweep for the Indians. The basic motive will be to salvage some pride with a win hereon.



Possible Playing XI: Takudzwanashe Kaitano, Innocent Kaia, Milton Shumba, Sean Williams, Sikandar Raza, Regis Chakabva (c &amp; wk), Ryan Burl, Luke Jongwe, Brad Evans, Victor Nyauchi, Tanaka Chivanga.



<h2>Zimbabwe vs India: Winning Prediction</h2>



Match Prediction - India to win the match



Based on the current form of players and the rhythm of the team overall, India is expected to continue its winning momentum over Zimbabwe and complete a convincing clean sweep over the hosts with a fine win in the 3rd Zimbabwe vs India ODI.

Zimbabwe vs India 3rd ODI predictions: Who will win today's match between Zimbabwe and India?

zimbabwe-vs-india-3rd-odi-predictions

It was India's perfect performance in both the bowling and batting parts in the opening ODI against Zimbabwe in Harare, as they bowled out the home team for just 189 and chased down the target in just 30 overs without losing a wicket - Shikhar Dhawan and Shubman Gill batted together at the top, keeping their third century-plus stand in the last four ODIs they played together.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/08/shikhar-dhawan-was-the-first-t.webp" alt="shikhar dhawan hitting the ball" class="wp-image-93092"/><figcaption>Dhawan-Gill made 192 runs opening partnership to win the match by 10 wickets</figcaption></figure>



The Indian think tank will be pleased with Deepak Chahar's remarkable performance as he found swing and discipline in his very first game after returning from a back injury. Moreover, KL Rahul and other batters didn't get the opportunity to bat as the openers did the job without losing any wickets.



The Indian bowling showed a sharp edge. Deepak Chahar, Prasidh Krishna, and Mohammad Siraj shared 7 wickets between them. Axar Patel took the rest of the three. Kuldeep Yadav was economical and bowled to the right areas. The plans were executed on the mark.



Deepak Chahar after his excellent performance said "My plan is always simple. When the ball is swinging, try to bowl fuller length and take as many wickets as possible. When the ball is not swinging, then there is a Plan B or Plan C."



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/08/deepak-chahar.webp" alt="Deepak chahar" class="wp-image-93091"/><figcaption>Deepak Chahar helps India take an early lead</figcaption></figure>



Their rivals, Zimbabwe, came high in the series by winning both the T20I and ODI series. Although they won those series, there were still some concerns during their ODI series against Bangladesh, and one of them was the lack of runs from the top order.



The top 4 batters went back to the pavilion on single digits. Innocent Kaia scored 4 runs, T Marumani scored 8, Madhevere scored 5, and Sean Williams was out at 1 run. Now, this is a real issue of concern for Zimbabwe before the T20 world cup 2022. While bowling, they bowled as many as 21 wide balls.



"The Indian bowlers bowled really well, put the pressure on us and we lost our way after the first 4-5 overs. It was good to see Richi (Ngarava) and Brad give us that partnership at the end," said Regis Chakabva, Zimbabwe's captain.

IND VS ZIM ODI: Zimbabwe would like to manage top-order problems, and India would like to seal the series.

ind-vs-zim-odi-zimbabwe-would-like-to-manage-top-order-problems-and-india-would-like-to-seal-the-series

Zimbabwe came into the ODI series against India with a lot of confidence after beating Bangladesh in T20Is as well as ODIs, but against Team India, it was a completely different story, they were nowhere close to a competition. India won the first match by 10 wickets and the second by 5 wickets. Two simple and clinical wins in two ODIs for India. India completely outplayed the host in both ODIs.



Indian captain KL Rahul won the toss and invited the host team to bat first. 26 in the first 10 overs, a very slow start makes Zimbabwe?s top order collapse once again and lost the top 4 batters on just 31 runs after 13 overs. Sean Williams's 42 runs and Ryan Burl?s 39 helped Zimbabwe to reach 161 at the aggregate. Shardul Thakur took 3 and none of the Indian bowlers were wicketless.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/08/ind-vs-zim-2nd-ODI-1.jpg" alt="Ind Vs Zim 2nd ODI" class="wp-image-93138"/><figcaption>MD Siraj dismissed T. Kaitano</figcaption></figure>



In the chase, KL Rahul, who came to open for India, fell victim to Victor Nyauchi after scoring 1 run. Four more wickets fell in the form of Shikhar Dhawan, Shubman Gill, Deepak Hooda, and Ishan Kishan but they all played their part and Samson hits a six to easily cross the target in just 25 overs with 5 wickets left. India shed some sweat today but they were in control.



Zimbabwe used as many as eight bowlers to bowl 25 overs. Again, similar to prior, 18 extra runs in form of wide balls. Zimbabwe was nowhere near winning either of the ODIs. They really need to fix their top-order problems and also line of bowling. 



Who said what:



Regis Chakabva: "I think we had a really good fight. Last few games we struggled to pick up early wickets and we managed to do that. Today we were short of a few runs. We were up for the challenge, the bowlers hit their lengths really well."



KL Rahul:&nbsp;"(On whether he was nervous during the chase)Not really, we do bat deep. Good for some of the guys to get time in the middle. I do need some time in the middle, obviously playing this series was important for me to take some runs and confidence away, but unfortunately, didn't work out today. They do have some quality bowlers, I saw that in the previous series against Bangladesh as well. The bowlers came strong at us, a good challenge for us. We are here to play good cricket and win, every opportunity is an honor so we want to do it out there next time also to enjoy ourselves and put in a good performance. Wherever we travel, we get good support from Indian fans, very thankful for their support."

India vs Zimbabwe Dream11 Prediction, Fantasy Team, Playing11, Pitch Report, Where to Watch - T20 World Cup 2022.



In the final match of the ICC T20 World Cup 2022 Super12s, India will face Zimbabwe on 6th November 2022 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG). The contest will begin at 1:30 PM Indian Standard Time (IST).



Rohit Sharma-sheered team India has done well in the tournament so far and is placed well above others in the points table. India?s world cup campaign kickstarted with two consecutive victories against Pakistan and Netherlands respectively. The Men in Blue then lost a game to South Africa but made a rebound against Bangladesh and registered their third win of the tournament.



For team India, the equation is pretty simple and straightforward right now. A win against Zimbabwe will directly put them in the driver?s seat as they will be through to the ICC Men?s T20 World Cup 2022 semi-finals.&nbsp;



Even if India losses to Zimbabwe, they could still have some chances to make it through to the semi-finals, but it will require few permutations and combinations, a situation where India won't like to go. And if the match gets washed out by the rain, India will be awarded one point which will again put them into the semis.



On the other side, Zimbabwe, although, isn?t ruled out of the tournament yet, are on the brink of getting eliminated. They have only registered a single victory in the Super12s, against Pakistan, in four matches and have just two points.



Evidently, Zimbabwe will start inferior to the Indian team in their next match, but in a T20I game, anything is possible. Out of the blue, Zimbabwe handed a defeat to the star-studded Pakistan side, they can do the same to any other side in the world cricket right now.



With some hopes still alive for Zimbabwe, the upcoming contest is going to be interesting for the fans. This article will cover India vs Zimbabwe Dream11 Prediction, Fantasy Team, Playing11, Pitch Report, Where to Watch - T20 World Cup 2022.

After the retirement of Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja, the responsibility of the shortest format has now fallen on the new Indian players. The Indian team will land to Zimbabwe and play a five-match T20I series, the first match of which will be played on July 6 at Harare Sports Club.



BCCI has announced the T20I squad against Zimbabwe. The responsibility of the team is on the shoulders of Shubman Gill. Abhishek Sharma and Riyan Parag will represent the Indian team for the first time.

The wait for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is all set to be over. The tournament will begin on 19th February, and the final will take place on 9th March. The India team, no doubt, will be one of the hot favourites to win the tournament, which will be played in a hybrid model. 
India will be playing all their ICC Champions Trophy 2025 games in Dubai. The Rohit Sharma-led side will be beginning their campaign against Bangladesh on 20th February, and, after that, will be playing Pakistan on 23rd February, followed by New Zealand on 2nd March. 
The departure date of India for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 also has been revealed. As per the reports in Times of India, it is learned that the Rohit Sharma-led side will be travelling to Dubai on 15th February. The reports added that more clarity on the same will come in the coming days. 
<h2>India won't be playing any warmup matches ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025</h2>
Not only this, it is learned that India also won't be playing any warmup matches ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. This is because all the teams will be in Pakistan, and hence, it will be difficult for the International Cricket Council (ICC) to arrange the warmup match. 
The reports added that India team management is happy with the net session ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. This is because they will be playing the three-match ODI series against England, which will begin on 6th February across three venues in India. 
Apart from this, it is reported that the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 won't be having a captain photoshoot because of the different challenges along with the different arrivals of the team. This means that Rohit Sharma won't be travelling to Pakistan for this and will be staying in Dubai with the team. 
The opening ceremony of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 will be held in Lahore. There were talks of having the event in Karachi but the Pakistan Cricket Board decided to host it in Lahore.

ICC Champions Trophy 2025: India to travel to Dubai on this date; unlikely to play warmup game

India batter Shubman Gill has started his preparations for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The premier batter has returned to nets for the white-ball practice as he was named in the Indian team for the ODI series against England and the ICC tournament. 
Shubman Gill has been under a lot of pressure for his poor outings with the bat, especially in Test cricket. With the emergence of Yashasvi Jaiswal, who delivered consistent performances, there were a lot of questions about the place of Gill, even in the ODIs. 
Several fans and experts also have backed Yashasvi Jaiswal to open the innings for India in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 along with Rohit Sharma. However, amid all this Shubman Gill is making sure that he gives his best to train for the tournament. 
With England ODIs and ICC Champions Trophy 2025 around the corner, Shubman Gill was seen batting in the Punjab Cricket Association Stadium. He was seen batting with the white-ball ahead of the tournament and the video can be seen at the end of the article. 
Shubman Gill looked in golden touch with the bat as he played a pull towards the four before blocking the balls. The batter would be eager to make a strong comeback and reply to all the criticism in style with his performances in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. 
Shubman Gill recently played the Ranji Trophy 2024-25 for Punjab. The batter was the lone warrior for his team as he hit a magnificent century and returned to form after having a poor outing in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25, where he played just three games. 
Shubman Gill would want to carry on his form and help a team win. He has been one of the best batters for India in ODIs. He also has been named as the vice-captain of the team for the tournament and with added responsibility under his belt, a lot will be reliant on him.

Pakistan batter Babar Azam has been in the news for the last few days, especially with the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 around the corner. The batter's name has been discussed a lot related to making him open, especially with no clarity over Saim Ayub. 
Pakistan is the only team that has yet to announce the squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. Since the last few days, he has been in the news as there have been a lot of reports that have suggested that there are chances that he might open the innings for the team. 
However, the fresh reports in Cricket Pakistan have revealed that there are no plans to make Babar Azam open the innings. The reports added that the selection committee has not given the green signal to the development as they feel that batter will be best suited in the middle order. 
<h2>Selectors want a proper opener in the role; Babar Azam to at in middle-order</h2>
The reports claimed that selectors want a proper opener in the role. One of the openers that has been finalized by the management is Fakhar Zaman. However, with Saim Ayub likely to miss out, it is learned that Imam-ul-Haq is also in contention to take the role. 
Babar Azam has been the best batter for Pakistan in ODIs. The batter has mustered truckloads of runs for the team in the format while batting at No.3 and he will be extremely crucial for his team in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, which will be played in Pakistan with India games to be played in India. 
Babar Azam also has been a decent opener as well. He has been opening for the team in T20Is and has achieved massive success as well. He also opened in Test cricket during the recent South Africa series and aced that challenge as well, slamming two half-centuries in two innings. 
But, in white-ball cricket, Babar Azam has been criticised a lot for opening in T20Is. This is because he has failed to maximise the powerplay and has been batting with a low strike rate. It remains to be seen where he will be batting for the team in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.

India assistant coach Ryan Ten Doeschate has provided a massive fitness update about batter Rinku Singh ahead of the fourth IND vs ENG T20I. He mentioned that the left-hander has gained full fitness and will be playing the next match of the five-match T20I series. 
India and England are all set to lock horns with each other in the fourth match of the T20I series. The game is all set to be played at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune on Thursday (30th January). The series is currently at 2-1, with hosts in the lead. 
India has been without the services of Rinku Singh for the last two games of the IND vs ENG series. The left-hander sustained a low back spasm while fielding in the first game and was then ruled out of the next two games of the series as he was under the observation of the BCCI medical team. 
In his place, the India team added Dhruv Jurel to the XI, and the move didn't pay off. The keeper-batter batted lower down the order and struggled to get going in both games, and it potentially cost them the last match of the series. 
<h2>Rinku Singh is fit and ready to play tomorrow - Ryan Ten Doeschate</h2>
However, in what will be a massive boost, Rinku Singh has been declared fit for the next two games. The development was confirmed by assistant coach Ryan Ten Doeschate, who said that the batter hit nets and will be playing. He told reporters. 
"Rinku Singh is fit and ready to play tomorrow. He batted yesterday night" 
Rinku Singh has been India's one of the best batters in the T20Is. His absence was felt in the last two games as well, but now, with him being fit, it is expected that he would walk straight into the XI and is likely to add Dhruv Jurel to the team. 
The fourth IND vs ENG T20I will be a great opportunity for India to to seal the series, but they need to make some corrections before heading into the next IND vs ENG match. 
India faced a disappointing 26-run loss in the last match at Rajkot. Their batting was one of the main reasons behind the loss and they would be hoping to make a strong comeback.
