Team India changes:
The opening batter Yashasvi Jaiswal, wicketkeeper Sanju Samson, and all-rounder Shivam Dube are back in the Indian team for the last three T20Is after winning the T20 World Cup trophy in Barbados. The trio will most likely make it to the playing squad.
On the other hand, Sai Sudharsan, who made his T20I debut for India on Sunday (July 7), will return home along with pacer Harshit Rana and wicketkeeper Jitesh Sharma, who was named in the Indian squad for the first two matches only.
India's likely playing XI for the third T20I vs Zimbabwe: Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill (C), Abhishek Sharma, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Sanju Samson (WK), Shivam Dube, Riyan Parag, Washington Sundar, Ravi Bishnoi, Avesh Khan, Mukesh Kumar
The #T20WorldCup-winning trio is in the house... 👏 👏
