HARARE: Regis Chakabva will skipper Zimbabwe in three One-day Internationals against India in Harare from August 18 as regular captain Craig Ervine has a torn hamstring.
The top-order batsman-cum-wicketkeeper captained Zimbabwe to a winning 2-0 lead over Bangladesh last Sunday in another ODI series, before a sprained hand ruled him out of a final-match loss.
Zimbabwe will face India in a positive mood after 2-1 ODI and Twenty20 series victories over Bangladesh this month. Pakistan-born Sikandar Raza, who starred in the ODI series, is part of a 17-man squad named on Thursday by recently hired coach Dave Houghton.
The series, part of the Cricket World Cup Super League, will be staged at the Harare Sports Club.
Squad: Ryan Burl, Regis Chakabva (capt/wkt), Tanaka Chivanga, Bradley Evans, Luke Jongwe, Innocent Kaia, Takudzwanashe Kaitano, Clive Madande, Wessly Madhevere, Tadiwanashe Marumani, John Masara, Tony Munyonga, Richard Ngarava, Victor Nyauchi, Sikandar Raza, Milton Shumba, Donald Tiripano.
