India will tour Zimbabwe for three One-Day Internationals (ODIs) and two Twenty20 Internationals (T20Is) in July. The Indian cricket team will arrive in the country on July 7, and after the conclusion of the tour, Zimbabwe will be hosting New Zealand.

The chairman of Zimbabwe Cricket (ZC), Alistair Campbell informed on Twitter on their official page, “I can confirm that it’s now a done deal. India are arriving on July 7 & will leave on the 20th,3 ODIs & 2 T20s.”

“The schedule for the matches is almost done & should be released later this week. However, all the matches will be played in Harare. We are very pleased that @BCCI are coming & the fact that the @BLACKCAPS are coming just a week after India’s departure,” Campbell added.

He was quoted as saying by News Day, “There’s also Pakistan who are coming in August as part of the benefits for our tour there recently and there is another tour by West Indies.”

The schedule for India’s tour of Zimbabwe 2015 will be announced later this week, after the two cricket boards decide on the itinerary. India are currently touring Bangladesh for one-off Test and three-match One-Day International series.
