On Tuesday (February 6), The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and Zimbabwe Cricket (ZC) announced that India will tour to Zimbabwe to play five T20Is in July.
The series will take place immediately after the conclusion of the upcoming edition of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024, which takes place in the USA and West Indies from June 1 to June 29.

India and Zimbabwe will be playing each other for the first time in a bilateral series since 2022, and the first time since 2016 that the two teams will contest in a bilateral T20I series.
The two teams last met in an international match in the Group Stage of the T20 World Cup 2022, which India won by 71 runs.

‘Zimbabwe Cricket needs our support’ – BCCI Secretary Jay Shah
BCCI Secretary Jay Shah stated that the board is happy to collaborate with ZC in order to foster a better bilateral relation and also to help the growth of the country’s cricketing landscape.
The BCCI has always played a pioneering role in contributing to the global cricketing community. We understand that it is a period of rebuilding for Zimbabwe, and Zimbabwe Cricket needs our support at this juncture.
Our steadfast commitment to touring and supporting fellow member boards aligns with our principle of bringing about a positive transformation within the cricketing landscape. The BCCI will do its best to make bilateral cricket stronger and commercially more viable.
Our pledge to support Zimbabwe Cricket reflects a shared vision for the growth and prosperity of cricket on the international stage.
ZC Chairman Tavengwa Mukuhlani claimed that they were “thrilled” to welcome India for a five-match T20I series, admitting that it would also be the “biggest international attraction at home” in 2024.
We are absolutely thrilled to be hosting India for a T20I series in July in what will be our biggest international attraction at home this year.
The game of cricket has always immensely benefited from India’s influence and dedication to the sport, and I would like to say a huge thank you to the BCCI for committing to tour Zimbabwe once again.
The significance and magnitude of this tour cannot be over-emphasised, especially as it is coming at a time we are working round the clock to re-establish ourselves as a force to reckon with at the highest level of the game.
