This might actually be an interesting series assuming India will opt for a week squad.

Yes and the last time we toured them, we lost one of the T20 match. I think Rahane was the captain in that tour.

Definitely even for U19 Indian squad , this tour will not be so difficult to win, though t20 matchs can go tight. beauty of T20

[rijwan khan]

This zim tour would go really meaningless, why we are touring them each year?

India pick Faiz Fazal for Zimbabwe tour | Cricket | ESPN Cricinfo

I wanted to see Uthappa, Iyer (who had an exceptional domestic tournament) in the squad. But happy to see Rahul, Nair and Chahal. Hope they perform well.

Only 3 regulars in the squad, That is Dhoni, Bumrah and Manish Pandey.

MSD in both odi's and T20

 

[AliB]

Surprised to see no Shami & Bhuvi, they should've been given a chance to free his arms befor the all important tour of the Caribbean.

 

[zwarrior]

Dhoni, with 275 ODIs and 68 T20Is, has more experience than the other 15 players combined - 83 ODIs and 28 T20Is.

^Bhuvi is fine. He is bowling plenty in IPL. Shami should have been included so that he can play more matches before the Caribbean tour.

Sanjay Bangar named India coach for Zimbabwe tour | Cricket | ESPN Cricinfo

It does not really matter who we have as a head coach for this tour as it is very short. They have a different fielding coach for this tour. Abhay Sharma is given that responsibility instead of R Sridhar who was our fielding coach till T20. Also there is no bowling coach for this tour.

IPL slump costs Hardik Pandya and Pawan Negi | Cricket | ESPN Cricinfo

Also came across this article. I don't mind seeing Hardik get a rest since he has been playing continuously since the start of this year. However, I don't really rate Neg that much. He is like a classic bits and pieces cricketer who doesn't do any job to perfection. He is not that good of a bowler and same can be said about his batting. Hardik had a tough IPL so it's important he goes away from the game for some time and come back strong. He is the type of player which we need in limited overs.
