Virat Kohli will continue to lead the side in the absence of Dhoni and Gautam Gambhir fails to make a comeback. India skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni has been rested for the five-match ODI series in Zimbabwe in July. Ajinkya Rahane and Ambati Rayudu have been retained from the team that is playing the ongoing tri-series in West Indies.
Test and ODI regulars like Ishant Sharma, R Ashwin, Umesh Yadav and Bhuvneshwar Kumar have been rested. Regular Test opener Murali Vijay, who was included in the ODI team that played the ICC Champions Trophy and the West Indies tri-series has been dropped.
Meanwhile Gautam Gambhir, who last played an ODI for India against England earlier this year, was named among the probables for the Windies series by the selectors, has been ignored.
India will play the first three games of bilateral series against Zimbabwe at the Harare Sports Club and the last two in Bulawayo. The series commences on July 24 and ends August 3rd.
