BCCI need smaller boards support in ICC...
 
India likely to go ahead with Zimbabwe tour | Cricket | ESPN Cricinfo

Despite recent doubts that have emerged over India's forthcoming tour of Zimbabwe, a second-string Indian squad is likely to be named this month for the three ODIs and two Twenty20 matches.

The tour, scheduled from July 10 to 19, is likely to go forward with officials from both the boards ironing out last-minute details on the sidelines of the ongoing ICC annual conference in Barbados this week. A formal confirmation is awaited in the coming days once the top officials from BCCI and Zimbabwe Cricket conclude their discussions. "They are still talking. [But] it should be fine. We are making progress," an official privy to discussions in Barbados, told ESPNcricinfo.
 
Rahane to lead second-string side in Zimbabwe | Cricket | ESPN Cricinfo
Ajinkya Rahane will lead a second-string India side to Zimbabwe for the ODIs and T20s, with MS Dhoni, Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Suresh Raina, R Ashwin, Shikhar Dhawan and Umesh Yadav rested from the tour. No specialist wicketkeeper was named in the 15-man squad.

Good chance for Rayudu, Vijay, Uthappa. Harbhajan could be senior most member of team 🙂
 
We know whats going to be the result...
 


1st match today.
Zim won toss and asked India to bat first.
 
India 89/5 (25.0 ov) RR 3.56
Bowling is good, or batting is bad 😱
 
As usual India's struggle against swing continues. This is a second string team though but fair enough it's against Zim.
 
India 255/6 (50.0 ov)
Not bad score after poor start.
 
Saved on last ball!! haha... But India A team shud be able to beat atleast Zimbabwe easily.

Pandey missed century on debut. But Kedar Jadhav gets his first century.
 
Bit disappointed they did not try out Sandeep Sharma. Perhaps for the T20s...
