Team India and BCCI has officially announced the squad for the upcoming Zimbabwe tour. Another 50-over series will witness Shikhar Dhawan captaining the blues, along with a confirming comeback of Deepak Chahar, Shardul Thakur, ans Washington Sundar.

With as many senior players rested, one of the most crucial statements is revealed that Virat Kohli, who is been pushing hard to come back to what he is always known for, was previously suggested by the BCCI itself to allow him to play the Zimbabwe series which might have aided him for a better growth in the Asia Cup as well as the ICC T20 World Cup.

But the tables have turned as Virat Kohli is announced ‘rested’ along with senior players like Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, and others

SQUAD: Shikhar Dhawan (C), Ruturaj Gaikwad, Shubman Gill, Deepak Hooda, Rahul Tripathi, Ishan Kishan (wk), Sanju Samson (wk), Washington Sundar, Shardul Thakur, Kuldeep Yadav, Axar Patel, Avesh Khan, Prasidh Krishna, Mohammed Siraj, Deepak Chahar.
