ZIM vs IND Match Prediction, 1st T20I: Team India is now on a tour of Zimbabwe for a 5-match T20 series. The first T20 match will be played at Harare Sports Club from July 6. The second-order players of the Indian team will face a tough challenge as Shubman Gill will lead the team for the first time. Gill was dropped from the T20 World Cup squad and the batsman is eager to prove both his batting and leadership abilities.
On the other hand, Riyan Parag and Abhishek Sharma will be making their international debut after their impressive IPL performances. Zimbabwe too has a brigade of young players, with Sikandar Raza taking over the captaincy for the five-match T20 series. India will look different with the hosts’ bowling attack featuring the likes of Blessing Muzarabani, Wellington Masakadza and Richard Ngarava. With an intent to re-emerge at the international level, Zimbabwe will take this series as a golden opportunity to announce their new version in this format.
India and Zimbabwe have faced each other in 8 matches in T20. Out of these 8 games, India has won 6 while Zimbabwe has emerged victorious on 2 occasions.
