The Indian team is to play a 5-match series against Zimbabwe right after the T20 World Cup and this series is very important for the Indian team. If media reports are to be believed, the BCCI management may soon announce a 15-member team for the ZIM vs IND series. It is being said that young players will be given a chance for the ZIM vs IND series.

But before this ZIM vs IND series, a big news related to the Indian team has come out and according to this news, the senior players of Team India have refused to play in this series.

Senior players of the team will not participate in ZIM vs IND series

For the ZIM vs IND T20 series, the BCCI management will announce a 15-member team and senior players will not be given a place in the team.

If media reports are to be believed, the senior players of Team India are not interested in playing against second-rate teams. For this reason, when the BCCI management announces the team for teams like Zimbabwe and Ireland, it often tries to rest the senior players.

It is being said that the BCCI management is preparing senior players for the ODI series against Sri Lanka. If media reports are to be believed, players like Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Jaspreet Bumrah, Kuldeep Yadav and Mohammad Siraj may be rested in this series.

Suryakumar Yadav can be the captain in ZIM vs IND series

The captaincy of the 15-member squad that the BCCI management will announce for the five-match T20 series against Zimbabwe may be handed over to experienced batsman Suryakumar Yadav. Suryakumar Yadav had earlier led the Indian team in the five-match T20 series played against Australia and after this he was also given a chance in the T20 series against South Africa. Many times, in the absence of Rohit Sharma, the management has also handed him the captaincy of Mumbai Indians.

IPL stars may get a chance in ZIM vs IND

For the ZIM vs IND T20 series, the BCCI management can consider giving a chance to the players who performed well in IPL 2024. It is being said that the management can consider giving a chance to players like Abhishek Sharma, Riyan Parag, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Mayank Yadav, Yash Thakur in this series.
