India tour of Zimbabwe: How to watch on ICC.tv
After their T20I and ODI series triumph over Bangladesh, Zimbabwe's attention turns to a touring India side for three ODIs as part of the Cricket World Cup Super League.
Though the league has little implication for India as they have already qualified for the World Cup 2023 by virtue of being hosts, Zimbabwe will need to make a push in the standings.
The hosts are in good form following their 2-1 triumph over Bangladesh, though will be missing the likes of Sean Williams, Craig Ervine and Blessing Muzarabani.
India meanwhile welcome back KL Rahul, with the batter to captain the side in Rohit Sharma's absence.
The top seven teams in the table at the end of the Super League automatically qualify for the 2023 World Cup, along with hosts India. The remaining teams will have to go through qualifiers in order to make it for the marquee event next year.
India currently occupy the seventh spot with 79 points from 12 games. On the other hand, Zimbabwe are a spot off the bottom at 12th with 35 points from 15 games.
'Unbelievable' Zimbabwe react to T20 World Cup Qualifier B victory
Though it would be a Herculean effort, a 3-0 win over India could see them breathing down the necks of Australia, who are 8th in the standings and are currently occupying the last qualifying spot.
It's India's first tour of Zimbabwe since 2016, and the men in blue have happy memories of their last tour, where they whitewashed the hosts 3-0 in the ODI series.
