India is set to begin its tour of Zimbabwe with a five-match T20I series, commencing with the first game at Harare Cricket Stadium on Saturday, July 6th. This match marks India’s return to the T20I format after their recent World Cup triumph, adding significance to the series.
Adding to the intrigue, the series will be India’s first without legendary players Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli in the T20I format, both of whom announced their retirement from the shortest format following the World Cup victory. The absence of these two stalwarts will undoubtedly provide opportunities for other players to step up and make their mark.
The first T20I match is scheduled to begin at 4:30 PM IST, with the toss taking place at 4 PM IST. Fans can catch the action live on Sony Sports Network, with streaming options available through the SonyLiv app and website.
All eyes will be on the Indian team as they embark on this tour without their two most experienced T20I players. The series promises to be an exciting affair as India looks to maintain its dominance in the format while Zimbabwe seeks to capitalize on the opportunity to test itself against a formidable opponent.
