Tests from September 2024 to January 2025. India’s ace pacer Jasprit
Bumrah will likely be excluded from the T20I team and focus on red-
ball cricket.

A BCCI source, speaking on condition of anonymity, told PTI that the

board would likely include younger players. Many of these players
delivered impressive performances in IPL 2024.
"Abhishek Sharma, Riyan Parag, Mayank Yadav, Harshit Rana, Nitish
Reddy, Vijaykumar Vyshak, Yash Dayal are all at the camp. Some will
go to Zimbabwe T20Is," the source said.
Another notable name that has come up is Shreyas Iyer. The Kolkata
Knight Riders (KKR) captain, who led his team to victory this year, is
not currently at the National Cricket Academy (NCA), where most
other younger players are present.
"However, there is every possibility that Shreyas will travel for the
three-match ODI series in Sri Lanka. The last ODI that India played
was in South Africa and he scored a half-century (52). He had 500
plus runs (530) in World Cup and averages just around 50. Can you
drop him?" the source added.

Other IPL stars like Rinku Singh, Shubman Gill, Avesh Khan and
Khaleel Ahmed are also likely to travel to Zimbabwe. Hardik Pandya
and Suryakumar Yadav will lead the team as captain and vice-captain,
respectively, in case they are not rested, the report added.
Shreyas Iyer’s comeback to the Indian team may be connected to
Gautam Gambhir, KKR's mentor. Multiple reports indicate that
Gambhir is all set to replace Rahul Dravid as India’s Head Coach. GG
guided KKR to an IPL victory after 10 years.
Iyer and Ishan Kishan were dropped from BCCI's central contracts
due to their alleged unwillingness to play in the Ranji Trophy.
However, Iyer claimed his lower back issue had kept him out. He
eventually did play in the Ranji Trophy final.

It was earlier reported that Gambhir had requested full control of the
team and separate squads for white-ball and red-ball cricket. The
BCCI has reportedly agreed to these demands.
