India likely XI vs Zimbabwe: The Indian cricket team is set to usher in a new era in T20I cricket when a new-look side takes on Zimbabwe in a five-match T20I series, the first of which is on Saturday, July 6. The Men in Blue ended their 11-year wait for an ICC trophy when the Rohit Sharma-led side won the T20 World Cup 2024 in Barbados with a victory over South Africa in the final. Post the win, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli announced their retirements from T20Is with the latter making it clear that it was time for the new generation to take over. While Hardik Pandya might be the clear choice for T20I captaincy now that Rohit has retired from the format, Shubman Gill will look to seize this opportunity of leading the young Indian team in this series and his performance as a leader can potentially make him one of the contenders to succeed the 'Hitman'.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천IND vs ZIM 1st T20I 2024 Preview: Likely Playing XIs, Key Battles, H2H and More About India vs Zimbabwe Men슬롯사이트s T20 Cricket Match in Harare.

Middle-Order: The Indian cricket team's middle-order for this 1st T20I against Zimbabwe is expected to comprise of Riyan Parag, Dhruv Jurel/Jitesh Sharma and Rinku Singh. Parag excelled big time while batting at number four for the Rajasthan Royals and will look to do the same for Team India as well. Depending on the situation, Rinku Singh can slot in at number five and his ability to hit the big shots towards the end will come in handy. Jitesh Sharma kept wickets for India earlier as well in T20Is and is expected to get the nod for the 1st T20I.

All-Rounders: Washington Sundar is expected to be the lone all-rounder for the Indian cricket team in this 1st T20I against Zimbabwe. The spin-bowling all-rounder will aim to slot in his four overs while giving away as little runs as possible while also chipping in with the bat.

Bowlers: The trio of Mukesh Kumar, Khaleel Ahmed, Avesh Khan are set to form the pace-bowling attack for Team India. All three players have a lot of experience in T20 cricket and will look to make the most of it. On the spin bowling front, Ravi Bishnoi is set to feature in the playing XI, should Team India opt for a pace-heavy bowling attack.

While India will start this series as favourites, Zimbabwe would have the opportunity to cause an upset and make everyone sit up and take notice of them. The Sikandar Raza-led side had missed out on the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 in West Indies and USA and will look to put up a good show against the Men in Blue.
