Zimbabwe Tour: The Indian cricket team is currently on a Zimbabwe tour, where Team India is playing a five-match T20I series with Zimbabwe. In this series, many young players have been given a chance in the Team India squad.

The captaincy of Team India has been handed over to Gujarat Titans captain Shubman Gill in the Indian Premier League (IPL). However, a cricketer in this team returned to Team India after 1680 days but ended his career by shooting himself in the foot while playing the first match on the Zimbabwe tour.

Career ended in the first match of Zimbabwe Tour

Left-arm fast bowler Khalil Ahmed, who returned to Team India after a long time on the Zimbabwe tour, has been dropped from the team after playing the first match of the five-match series against Zimbabwe.

Captain Shubman Gill has dropped Khalil Ahmed in the second match. Khalil Ahmed bowled 3 overs in the first match and conceded 33 runs at an economy rate of 9.33 against a weak team like Zimbabwe on a bowler-friendly pitch and did not take any wicket. However, after the team's return after a long time, he ended his career by axing himself. After this, it is difficult for him to get a chance in the team after the return of senior players.

Team India is trailing 1-0 in the series against Zimbabwe

Team India, led by Shubman Gill, has lost the first match of the five-match T20I series against Zimbabwe and is trailing 1-0 in the series. In such a situation, captain Shubman Gill would have discussed strategies while returning to the next matches with former Team India batsman and National Cricket Academy director VVS Laxman, who has been appointed as the head coach of Team India for the Zimbabwe tour.

After this, Team India will go on tour against Sri Lanka

After the Zimbabwe series, the Indian cricket team will tour Sri Lanka. Where Team India has to play a three-match T20I series and a three-match ODI series. The T20I series will start from July 27 and the ODI series will start from August 2. Before the T20I series, Hardik Pandya can be appointed as the regular captain of T20I.
