The three-match T20I series will begin on 21 April at Harare Sports Club.
Zimbabwe, which is scheduled to play a three-match T20I series with Babar Azam-led Pakistan side has announced their 15-man squad for the same. The home team will be led by left-hand batsman Sean Williams.
To everyone’s surprise, Zimbabwe has named three uncapped players in their squad, Tadiwanashe Marumani, pacer Tanaka Chivanga, and spinner Tapiwa Mufudza. Marumani, 19, was considered after his four fifties in five matches in the Domestic T20 Competition.
Batsmen Brendan Taylor and Craig Ervine are also back after health issues kept them out of Zimbabwe's side in the last series against Afghanistan in the UAE.
