Ahead of the series opener, the Men in Blue received a warm reception upon their arrival in Zimbabwe on Wednesday, July 3. The Zimbabwe Cricket Board shared a video on their official X account, capturing the team’s arrival at the airport, led by VVS Laxman and accompanied by the coaching staff.
In preparation for the series, the BCCI announced three changes to the squad. Batsman Sai Sudharsan, wicketkeeper Jitesh Sharma, and pacer Harshit Rana have been included in the squad, replacing Sanju Samson, Yashasvi Jaiswal, and Shivam Dube for the initial two T20Is. The latter three players were delayed in Barbados due to Hurricane Beryl but are expected to join the team later.
As anticipation builds for the series, fans eagerly await to see how this fresh Indian team performs under the mentorship of Shubman Gill and the coaching of VVS Laxman against Zimbabwe.
