Team India is going to tour Zimbabwe in August for a three-match ODI series.

The dates are yet to be announced officially, but cricbuzz has reported that the three games, which will be part of the ICC One Day Super League, have been scheduled for August 18, 20 and 22 respectively.

The matches are important from Zimbabwe’s point of view as the series points will count towards qualifying for next year’s ODI World Cup.

“We are very happy to host India and we look forward to a competitive and memorable series,” a Zimbabwe Cricket (ZC) official was quoted as saying by the cricket portal.

The African nation’s visit is India’s first in six years. The last time India was when the Mahendra Singh Dhoni-led side played three ODIs and as many T20Is in June-July 2016.
