The five-match T20 International series will take place in Harare, Zimbabwe from July 6–14, according to an announcement on Tuesday from Zimbabwe Cricket (ZC) and the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).
Following the conclusion of the 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup, which will be held from June 1–29, this bilateral series will start.
The main goal of the series, according to a statement from Zimbabwe Cricket, is to strengthen bilateral connections and promote cooperation between the two cricketing bodies.
We are thrilled to be hosting India for a T20I series in July in what will be our biggest international attraction at home this year.
The game of cricket has always immensely benefited from India’s influence and dedication to the sport, and I would like to say a huge thank you to the BCCI for committing to tour Zimbabwe once again.
~ZC Chairman Mr Tavengwa Mukuhlani said
The BCCI has always played a pioneering role in contributing to the global cricketing community. We understand that it is a period of rebuilding for Zimbabwe, and Zimbabwe Cricket needs our support at this juncture.
~BCCI Honorary Secretary Jay Shah expressed his views
Zimbabwe will host India in a bilateral T20 International series for the fourth time; the series was played in 2010, 2015, and 2016. The two nations' most recent T20 International match took place in Melbourne, Australia in 2022 during the ICC Men's T20 World Cup, where India prevailed by 71 runs.
Two-time ICC Men's T20I Cricketer of the Year Suryakumar Yadav played an incredible knock, smashing an undefeated 61 runs off just 25 balls, making the match memorable.
